Tips

For thick gravy:

1.Fry Finely chopped onions till they turn golden brown, so that it tastes good

2.Mash 4-5 Potatoes before removing it from the fire, so that you get thick consistency. You can add more water if you prefer loose consistency

  1. For better taste, cook the Curry patiently on a low flame only

  2. Add more water, if the Curry becomes very hard after cooling.

Other Tips:

  1. Don't overcook Potatoes, else they get smashed during cooking

  2. I used Peas, which were soaked for 6-7 hours, which will get easily cooked along with Potatoes. You can use fresh Peas as well, but should be added after the Tomatoes are cooked and fry for 2-3 min.

  3. If you are cooking in the cooker, cook Potatoes and Peas separately

  4. Use less Oil, sufficient Salt and Chilli powder to get home made style curry

  5. Ginger Garlic paste is optional.

  6. Use Curry leaves if you like.
