    It is a simple preparation that complements pav, bread, chapati & also rice.Taste wise it is mainly sour & spicy. Thickness could be adjusted to your liking.


    Time 20-25 mins (If you use pre-boiled potato, cooking time will be shortened.)


    Serves 3-4


    Ingredients: 2 medium sized raw or boiled potatoes.(you may use potato with its skin), 2 medium sized onions, 2 medium sized tomatoes- all three cut in to small pieces, 2 tsp tamarind water, 1-2 tsp saaru (rasam) powder, 1 tsp dhania-jeera powder, ¼ tsp turmeric powder, salt to taste, finely chopped coriander leaves


    Seasonings: 2 tbsp oil, ½ tsp mustard seeds, ½ tsp cumin seeds, 6-8 curry leaves


    Method

    1. Heat oil in a pan. Crackle mustard & cumin seeds.

    2. Add onions & curry leaves. Fry, cover & cook for 2-3 mins.


    Option 1

    3. Add raw potato pieces & turmeric powder, fry for a minute cover & cook.

    4. After 2-3 minutes add required amount of water & the tomatoes, cover and cook until potatoes are cooked. Add salt.

    Or

    Option 2

    3. Stir, add turmeric powder, tomatoes and boiled potato pieces. Fry for a minute.

    4. Add salt & required amount of water


    5. When the water is boiling add 1 tablespoon of dilute tamarind water, saarina pudi & dhania-jeera powder.

    6. Cover and cook for 4-5 minutes on a low flame.

    7. Garnish with coriander leaves & serve.


    Note:

    1. You may add capsicum too.

    2. You may reduce water and make an almost dry curry. This can be used in lunch boxes or during travelling. The dry curry stays good for almost a day, so it is an excellent accompaniment for chapattis while travelling.

    Potato is the George Clooney of vegetables. Put it in any shape and form and it will be the highlight of that dish. And if it is the solo hero of the dish it is definitely a block buster !
    Love the color of the potato curry !! I am sure it was delicious!
