Yes, this is it. The curry that anyone can make simply by mixing cumin, coriander and tumeric with some vegetables, or, with a tin of Patak's curry sauce mix. I've grouped all curries that don't mention a particular style or region in here – the 'curried mushrooms', the 'aloo gobi'. Some are quite traditional, and some more modern - you can normally judge from the ingredients and style of writing.
Ingredients:
· 1/2 kg potatoes, boiled, peeled and cut into small pieces
· 2 onions, chopped
· green chilies, chopped
· 2 tomatoes, chopped
· tbsp oil
· Mustard and cumin seeds for seasoning
· 1 tsp coriander powder
· 1 sprig curry leaves
· Salt to taste
· Coriander leaves for garnishing
Method:
· Heat oil in a pan, season with mustard and cumin seeds, curry leaves
and fry for few minutes.
· Add green chilies, onions and fry for another 5 minutes.
· Now add tomatoes and cook until they become soft. Then add potato
pieces and stir well.
· Add 1/2cup water and salt to taste and cook until the water evaporates.
· Finally, add coriander powder and remove from heat.
