  • Saucepan
  • 1 kg white potatoes
  • 2 tsp chopped or minced ginger
  • 1 tsp chopped or minced garlic
  • 2 large tomatoes, roughly chopped
  • 2 tbsp vegetable oil
  • 35 g unsalted butter
  • 1 ½ tsp cumin seeds
  • 1 tsp coriander seeds
  • 1 large onion, roughly chopped
  • 1 ½ tsp turmeric
  • 2 ½ tsp ground coriander
  • 1 tsp ground cumin
  • 1 tsp garam masala
  • ¾ tsp chilli powder
  • ½ tsp salt
  1. Peel and chop the potatoes into smallish rough shaped cubes (very rough shaped cubes in my case as you can see!) and place in a pan of water and bring to the boil. In another pan add all the rest of the ingredients.

  2. Allow to potatoes to boil and cook until tender and whilst they are cooking, add heat to the other pan containing the spices, butter, oil, onion and tomatoes and start to mix.

  3. Put the heat up a little higher so it starts to sizzled, keep stirring until it has all mixed together, the tomatoes are cooking and breaking apart and the onion is soft.

  4. Once the potatoes are tender, drain them well and then put them back into the same pan, then add the spice butter mix into the potatoes pan with the potatoes but keep off the heat.

  5. Mix well then place back on the heat for a minute just to warm through and stir all the flavours together.

  6. After a minute, they are ready to serve. Enjoy!
