Vegetables

3 cups Potatoes

4 cups Fresh spinach

1 cup Onion

2 cups Tomato

Spices

1 tsp Cumin Seeds

1/2 tsp turmeric powder

1 tsp Red Chili Powder

1 tsp Garam masala

1 to taste Celtic sea salt

Others

2 tbs Oil

1 cup Water

Method

Preparation

Prepare the Vegetables

Peel and dice the potatoes into small cubes. Rinse the spinach thoroughly and chop it coarsely. Finely chop the onion and tomatoes.

Cooking

Cook the Base

In a large pot, heat the oil over medium heat. Add the cumin seeds and let them sizzle for a few seconds.

Sauté the Onions

Add the chopped onions to the pot and sauté until they turn golden brown.

Add Tomatoes and Spices

Add the chopped tomatoes, turmeric powder, red chili powder, and salt. Cook until the tomatoes soften and the oil begins to separate from the mixture.

Add Potatoes

Stir in the diced potatoes and cook for about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Add Water

Pour in the water and bring the mixture to a boil. Once boiling, reduce the heat, cover, and let cook until the potatoes are tender, about 15 minutes.

Add Spinach

Once the potatoes are cooked, add the chopped spinach and garam masala. Stir well and cook for another 5 minutes, allowing the spinach to wilt.

Serve

Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary. Serve hot with roti or rice.
