they do not burn. Immediately add the hing, ginger, and green
chillies. Let saute for a 30 seconds or so until they sizzle and
immediately add the tomatoes. Also add the fenugreek & coriander
seeds. Saute for 1 to 2 minutes until tomatoes start to soften. Add
the turmeric, red chili powder, amchoor, and salt to taste to the pot
along with the crumbled potatoes. On medium heat, stir around gently
to coat the potatoes. Saute for another minute or so. Next, add the
water and on medium heat let come to a boil. Once boiling, cover with
a lid, reduce heat to very low and let simmer for 15 to 18 minutes.
Add the garam masala next (if using) and chopped cilantro. Serve with
hot pooris.
