What Ingredients Do We Need for Making the Potato and Peas Curry?
Potatoes- You can use any potato. If they are big, cut them into cubes after boiling them. However, small / baby potatoes do not require cutting. Peas- Any peas will go with this, frozen or fresh. Tomatoes- I prefer vine-ripe tomatoes, but you can use any type. Ginger-Garlic Paste- People looking for a workout can use a mortar pestle, but you can certainly use a mixer grinder. A store-bought paste is also acceptable, but I like fresh ones better. Onion- Mostly, I prefer red onions for Indian curries. However, you can use any other onions. Turmeric powder, salt, coriander powder, red chili powder, and garam masala powder are the spices we will need. Additionally, dry red chili and cumin seeds are required for tempering and oil. I prefer using mustard oil, but you can also use any other oil of your choice.
