Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Heat 2 tbsp oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add whole spices and let them crackle for 30 seconds until fragrant.

  2. Step 2

    Add diced onion and cook, stirring often, until golden and soft, about 4 minutes. Stir in ginger-garlic paste and cook until fragrant, 90 seconds.

  3. Step 3

    Sprinkle in kashmiri chili powder and stir constantly for 30 seconds so it doesn't burn. Add crushed tomatoes and stir to combine.

  4. Step 4

    Whisk yogurt in a small bowl, then stir into the gravy. Add potatoes, salt to taste, and 0.5 cup water. Stir well.

  5. Step 5

    Bring to a simmer over medium heat. Cover and cook until potatoes are tender, 12–15 minutes. Stir once halfway through.

  6. Step 6

    Taste and adjust salt and spice. Serve in bowls, topped with fresh herbs. Scatter cherry tomatoes alongside and serve green chutney on the side.
