• 2 tomatoes (chopped)
• 2 tsp mustard oil
• 0.25 tsp cumin seeds
• 0.25 tsp mustard seeds
• 1 onions (chopped)
• 1 green chilli (chopped)

2. 2

   Add cumin seeds and mustard seeds to the oil; let them sizzle for about 2 minutes.

3. 3

   Add the chopped onions, green chilli, and ginger. Sauté for 3 minutes until the onions are translucent.

4. 4

   Add the chopped tomatoes and potatoes to the cooker.

5. 5

   Stir in the salt, coriander powder, garam masala, and red chilli powder. Cook for 2 minutes to allow the spices to coat the vegetables.

7. 7

   Release the pressure, open the cooker, and garnish with fresh chopped green coriander before serving.

Serve hot with steamed rice or chapati. Ensure the mustard oil is heated until it reaches its smoking point to remove the raw pungency before adding the seeds.
