 In a non-stick pan, add oil and heat over medium flame.

 Add cumin seeds to the oil and wait until the seeds splutter.

 Now, add green chilies and garlic. Fry until the garlic becomes
 brownish.

 Gently add sliced onions and fry until they are translucent. Add
 chopped tomatoes and cook until they become mushy.

 Now, add the mentioned spice powders and combine them well.

 Add potato pieces and stir them until the spices are blended evenly
 with the potato.

 Add water and cook on high flame until the potato pieces are cooked
 well.

 Add the cooked dal to the pan. Adjust water according to your required
 consistency.

 Season it with salt. Reduce the flame and cook on medium flame for
 about 5 minutes, until the dal are blended with potatoes and spices.
 Switch off the flame and set aside

 In a small pan, add oil. Once the oil is hot, add mustard seeds
 followed by urad dal and cumin seeds.
