I have a red pepper, I have potatoes, I have Basmati. What was the recipe? Sadly no fenugreek leaves in house, though I believe I have seen them for sale at Shoprite.
Boil / Steam the potatoes - when cool skin and cut up. I steamed pre pealed so just cut up hot.
In oil + gee (~tbps depends upon how much potatoes) add 1 tsp cumin seeds and 1/4 tsp black pepper. quickly add the rest of the spices - was 1 tablespoon lightly ground coriander, 1/2 tsp of salt (to taste), 1 tsp fenugreek leaves (which IMO are key)
Wait till fragrant, Then add the potatoes - cook until browned. They pick up all the spices.
Add in red peppers, cilantro, mango powder and cook until the red peppers are done.
Serve over rice is what I did, but seems to be optional.
Garnish with Gram Marsala.
Pretty simple. It called for way more potatoes / and like 3 red peppers - I scaled it down to 3 potatoes and 1 bell pepper. This kind of recipe is pretty easy to wing. You can adjust the spices to preference too. I like heavy spices so I didn't scale them down much.
