Instructions

  1. 1

    Heat the vegetable oil (2 tsp) in a large pot over medium-high heat. Toast the coriander seeds (1 tsp) and cumin seeds (0.5 tsp) for 1-2 minutes. Stir throughout.

  2. 2

    Then add the onion (1 large), cloves (4 garlic), and grated fresh ginger (2 tsp). Cook for 3 minutes, stirring often.

  3. 3

    Then add the salt (1 tsp), garam masala (1 tsp), ground turmeric (0.5 tsp), cayenne pepper (0.5 tsp), and ground black pepper (0.25 tsp). Toast for 30-60 seconds, stirring throughout.

  4. 4

    Add the white potatoes (3 medium) to the pot. Cook for 3-4 minutes, stirring frequently.

    Pour in the canned diced tomatoes (1.5 cups), boiling water (1 cup), and bouillon cube (0.5 vegetable). Cover, bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer, cooking for 15 minutes. Then remove the lid and cook uncovered for another 15 minutes, or until the white potatoes (3 medium) are cooked through.
