Perfect with roti, naan, or a bowl of steaming hot rice, this easy potato stir-fry is packed with comforting flavors and comes together with minimal effort.

Ingredients

  • Baby Potatoes – 8 to 10
  • Onion – 1, sliced lengthwise
  • Tomato – 1, chopped
  • Ginger Paste – 1 tsp
  • Garlic – 2 to 3 cloves, sliced lengthwise
  • Curry Leaves – a few
  • Curry Powder – 1 tsp
  • Turmeric Powder – ¼ tsp
  • Chilli Powder – ½ tsp
  • Mustard Seeds – 1 tsp
  • Cumin Seeds – ½ tsp
  • Fennel Seeds – ½ tsp
  • Oil – 1 tbsp
  • Salt – to taste
  • Fresh Coriander – chopped, for garnish

Method

  1.  Wash the baby potatoes thoroughly and gently poke each potato 2–3 times with a fork. Place them in the Instant Pot with enough water for pressure cooking.
  2. Pressure cook on the Vegetable setting on medium for 5 minutes. Allow the pressure to release naturally, then remove and set aside.
  3. Heat a pan over medium heat and add the oil.
  4. Add the mustard seeds, cumin seeds, and fennel seeds. Let them splutter.
  5. Add the sliced onions and sauté for 2–3 minutes until they become soft and translucent.
  6. Stir in the ginger paste and sliced garlic. Sauté for about a minute until fragrant.
  7. Add the chopped tomatoes, curry powder, chilli powder, turmeric powder, and salt. Cook for a few minutes until the tomatoes soften and the spices blend well.
  8. Add the cooked baby potatoes and gently mix until they are well coated with the masala.
  9. Reduce the heat to low and cook for 10–12 minutes, stirring occasionally. This allows the potatoes to absorb the flavors without breaking apart.
  10. Add the curry leaves and mix gently.
  11. Turn off the heat and garnish with freshly chopped coriander.
