Tomato-Aloo Curry (Tomato-Alugada kura)

Today I want to share one of my favorite recpies, Tomato-Aloo curry. I cook it very often, and this is my hubby's fav too.I know this is a regular curry we can find in my house holds of South India.
Lets talk about my version of recpie, I prefer using a bit more oil and I dont like to use water. So lets dig in...

Ingredients:

1. Potatos 2 medium size skinned and cubed
(I prefer to use white skin potatoes as they taste better)
2. Tomatos 4 medium size chopped (Preferably tomatoes on the vein or plum kind)
3. Red chili pwd 2 tbsp
4. Turmeric 1/2 tsp
5. Coriander leaves 2 tbsp chopped
6. Red onion finely chopped
7. Ginger-Garlic paste 1 1/2 tsp.
8. Salt to taste.
9. Oil 2 tbsp.

Procedure:

1. Heat oil and add chopped onion, let it fry till translucent.
2. Add ginger-garlic paste and fry for another 1 min, then add turmeric pwd followed by potato cubes, fry them for a while.
3. Add chopped tomatoes with coriander leaves and salt.
4. Put the lid and make the stove in between to simmer and medium flame.
(If you are using a pressure cooker,
then put it on medium flame for 2 whistles)
5. Check it after 5 mins and see if the potato cubes are cooked ,then open the lid and cook for few more mins, then its done.
