Method

  1. Heat the oil in a large, lidded frying pan over a medium heat. Add the cumin and mustard seeds and cook for 1 min or until they start to pop. Add the onion and crushed chillies and cook for 5 mins until softened and starting to brown. Reduce the heat to low, stir through the garlic and ginger, and cook for a further 2-3 mins, stirring, until the garlic is just starting to crisp.
  2. Reduce the heat to low-medium, add the potatoes and stir to coat in the onion mix. Add the turmeric, garam masala and 4 tbsp water; stir again to coat. Scatter over the tomato wedges and coriander stalks; season. Cover and cook for 10 mins, stirring once to stop it sticking, until everything is piping hot. Scatter with coriander leaves and chilli, if using, to serve.
  • Tip: Swap the red onion for any kind you have, and skip the garlic and ginger, if you prefer.
