Quick and easy Potato and Tomato Curry


This is a tasty recipe which can be made in a jiffy. I have avoided onions, ginger and garlic to give a different taste for a well known recipe.



Ingredients

Potato - peeled and diced - 2 medium sized
Tomato -- 2 Big tomatoes made into a puree
(or you can use 2 Tablespoons of tomato puree. Add a small cup of water as the puree is concentrated. Otherwise tangy taste will dominate and you can't relish the dish )
Red chilly powder - 1 teaspoon
Coriander powder - 2 teaspoons
Turmeric - 1 teaspoon
Garam masala - 1/2 teaspoon
Cooking oil - 2 tablespoons
Cumin seeds - 1 teaspoon
Salt to taste


Procedure

1.In a cooker/pressure pan, heat 2 tablespoons of oil. Season it with cumin seeds and add the diced the potatoes.
2. Fry the potatoes for 3-4 minutes and add the dry powders sans the salt.


3. Let the masalas cook for a minute and then add the tomato puree/paste along with salt.
4. Close the pan/cooker, place the weight and cook until you get 6/7 whistles. Switch off and open once the pressure releases. Garnish it with coriander and serve hot with rotis/rice.
