Spicy Potato Curry - For Rice


Spicy Potato Curry, I prepare this dish, whenever iam in short of vegetables and in need of curry with lots of kaaram.

If you have tasted the chettinaad dishes..their main spice ingredient would be the Pepper..but it will be a hidden spice, dominated spice would be of red chilli's. In same way, I have added Pepper powder here.

Spicy Potato Curry



Here is the Recipe.....

Ingredients:

Potatoes-2 (peel the skin)
Red onion-1 (medium size) - chopped very finely
Tomatoes-2 - chopped very finely
Tamarind - a small lemon size

Dry Red chilli's-3
Curry leaves-8
Garlic-3

Mustard-1/2 spoon
Fenugreek-5 seeds
Asafoetida powder-1/4 spoon

Butter-2 spoons
Oil - 4tbsp's

List of Powder's:

  • Turmeric Powder-a pinch
  • Chilly Powder-1 tbsp
  • Corriander Powder-2 tbsp's
  • Cumin Powder-1/2 tsp
  • Curry Leaves Powder- 2 tsp's (Optional)
  • Pepper Powder-1/2 tsp

Method:

In a Thick Bottomed Kadaai / Pan, heat 4tbsp's of oil.

Add mustard. when it crack's add fenugreek seeds, curry leaves, garlic and red chilli's. fry them well.

Now add Finely Chopped onions, saute them till they turn translucent. and add finely chopped tomatoes. saute the tomatoes along with onions, till they mix up along. You got to saute for atleast 3-4 minutes, till they mix up.

Now add Salt to taste and all the Powder's mentioned in the order. fry them well for2 minute's, till the oil comes out seperately.

Now add cubically cutted potatoe's and mix them well with the masala's.

Add 1/2 a cup of Tamarind water and close the kadaai with a lid. slower the flame. let the potatoe's get half-cooked.

After10 minutes..open the lid, add the butter and close the lid.

After 5 minutes..the potatoes would have cooked..and the spicy potato curry is ready.

Spicy Potato Curry with Rice

Trying to please Non-Vegan's with some spicy stuff's with vegetables alone is little difficult. but with the above dish..iam sure you can certainly impress them with the spiciness evolving inside this dish.

Since i don't use Tamarind..i have left it in the recipe. But adding Little tamarind water will surely enhance the taste.

Plus Points:

* The differences in the above recipe are, Potatoes getting cooked in the masala gravy. so you can expect tasty potatoes.

* Adding Curry leaves Powder will give you a secret taste..but you can't sort it out.

* The Spice of pepper will truly be enjoyable. and

* Adding butter will make this one a finger-licking curry:)

Try This, iam sure this will become your favourite.
