Step 1
Heat ghee in a pressure cooker over medium. Toast fennel seeds 30 seconds until fragrant, then add ginger-garlic paste.
Step 2
Cook paste for 1 minute stirring constantly. Add kashmiri chili powder, stir for 15 seconds until it coats the oil.
Step 3
Stir in yogurt, then crushed tomatoes. Add potatoes and coconut milk. Stir well to combine.
Step 4
Close the lid, bring to high pressure. Cook for 8 minutes on high pressure, then quick-release the steam.
Step 5
Open carefully. Potatoes should be fork-tender and gravy silky. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.
Step 6
Serve hot in bowls, spooning gravy over potatoes. Pair with basmati rice or warm naan.
