Ingredients
- 4 medium potatoes, peeled and diced
- 1 large onion, finely chopped
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1-inch piece ginger, grated
- 2 medium tomatoes, chopped
- 1 can (14 oz) coconut milk
- 2 tbsp vegetable oil or coconut oil
- 1 tsp cumin seeds
- 1 tsp mustard seeds
- 1 tbsp curry powder
- 1 tsp turmeric powder
- 1 tsp garam masala
- 1 tsp coriander powder
- 1/2 tsp red chili powder (adjust to taste)
- Salt to taste
- Fresh cilantro for garnish
- 2 cups water or vegetable broth
Equipment
- Large saucepan or deep skillet
- Wooden spoon or spatula
- Knife and cutting board
- Measuring spoons and cups
- Grater or microplane (for ginger)
- Can opener
Instructions
- Prepare the ingredients: Peel and dice the potatoes into bite-sized cubes. Chop the onions and tomatoes finely. Mince the garlic and grate the ginger.
- Heat the oil: In a large saucepan, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat. Add the cumin seeds and mustard seeds. When they start to pop, add the chopped onions.
- Sauté the onions: Cook the onions for about 5 minutes until translucent and slightly golden, stirring occasionally to prevent burning.
- Add garlic and ginger: Stir in the minced garlic and grated ginger. Cook for another 2 minutes until fragrant.
- Add tomatoes and spices: Toss in the chopped tomatoes, curry powder, turmeric, garam masala, coriander powder, and red chili powder. Cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the tomatoes break down and the mixture thickens.
- Add potatoes and liquid: Add the diced potatoes to the pan. Pour in the coconut milk and water or vegetable broth. Stir well to combine all ingredients.
- Simmer the curry: Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low. Cover and simmer for 20-25 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender and the curry has thickened, stirring occasionally.
- Season and finish: Taste and add salt as needed. If you prefer a thinner curry, add a bit more water or broth and simmer for a few more minutes.
- Garnish and serve: Sprinkle freshly chopped cilantro over the curry before serving.
Tips & Variations
For a richer flavor, toast whole spices like cardamom pods and cloves along with cumin and mustard seeds.
If you want to add more veggies, bell peppers, peas, or cauliflower florets work beautifully. Simply add them along with the potatoes.
For an extra protein boost, toss in some cooked chickpeas or tofu cubes.
If you prefer a thicker curry, reduce the amount of water or simmer uncovered for the last 5 minutes to evaporate excess liquid. Adjust the spice level by adding more or less chili powder depending on your heat tolerance.
For a tangy twist, squeeze some fresh lemon juice before serving. You can also swap coconut milk for almond or cashew milk if you want a lighter version, though the creaminess might be slightly reduced.
