Ingredients
Scale
4 medium potatoes, boiled, peeled, and cubed
3 medium tomatoes, pureed
1 teaspoon cumin seeds
1 teaspoon grated ginger (optional)
1 teaspoon turmeric powder
1 teaspoon red chili powder (optional)
Rock salt (sendha namak) to taste
2 tablespoons ghee
Fresh coriander leaves for garnish (optional)
Instructions
Heat Ghee: In a pan, heat ghee over medium heat. Add cumin seeds and let them crackle.
Add Spices: Add grated ginger (if using), turmeric powder, and red chili powder. Sauté for a minute until fragrant.
Add Tomatoes: Add the tomato puree and cook until the ghee starts to separate from the tomatoes.
Add Potatoes: Add the boiled and cubed potatoes, rock salt, and a little water. Mix well and let it simmer for 5-7 minutes.
Garnish and Serve: Garnish with fresh coriander leaves if desired. Serve hot with puris or rotis.
Notes
Tomato Preparation: Blanching the tomatoes before pureeing can make the sauce smoother and richer in flavor.
Consistency Adjustment: If you prefer a thicker gravy, reduce the amount of water added. For a thinner consistency, add more water and let it simmer longer.
Spice Level: Adjust the chili powder according to your heat preference or omit it entirely for a milder curry.
Serving Suggestion: This sabji pairs wonderfully with Kuttu Ki Puri or Singhare Ki Puri for a complete Ekadashi meal.
