Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Heat 2 tbsp oil in a large skillet over medium-high until shimmering, about 90 seconds.

  2. Step 2

    Add minced onion and ginger-garlic paste; cook until onion turns golden and fragrant, about 4 minutes.

  3. Step 3

    Stir in kashmiri chili powder and whole spices; toast for 30 seconds until the fragrance blooms.

  4. Step 4

    Add potatoes, tomato sauce, and 0.25 cup water; bring to a simmer and cook covered for 10 minutes.

  5. Step 5

    Whisk yogurt with 2 tbsp water, then slowly stir into the curry to avoid curdling; simmer 3 minutes more.

  6. Step 6

    Warm roti in a dry skillet and serve alongside the curry with jalebi on the side.
