Pudina Potato Curry is a flavorful dish featuring tender potatoes infused with the fresh taste of mint. Start by pressure-cooking the potatoes until soft, making them easy to peel and chop. Meanwhile, prepare a base by crushing ginger and garlic, and finely chopping onion and tomato. In a frying pan, heat oil and add mustard seeds, allowing them to pop before incorporating the onions and curry leaves, frying until translucent. Next, stir in ginger-garlic paste, followed by tomatoes, turmeric, sambar powder, and salt, cooking until the tomatoes are soft. Add the mint leaves and sauté briefly before mixing in the potato pieces. Allow the curry to simmer on low heat, stirring occasionally, until it reaches a dry consistency. Enjoy this aromatic and comforting curry as a side dish or main course!
This dish can be served with hot rice.
