How to Make Nepalese Potato Tomato And Pea Curry

  1. Heat 2 tablespoons of oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add 1 medium onion, chopped, and cook until softened and golden brown (about 5 minutes).
  2. Stir in 1 teaspoon ground pepper, 1-2 green chilies (finely chopped, adjust to your spice preference), 2 cloves garlic (minced), 1 inch ginger (grated), 1 teaspoon turmeric powder, and 1 teaspoon salt.
  3. Cook for 2-3 minutes, stirring constantly, until fragrant. Add 2 medium potatoes (peeled and cubed).
  4. Stir to coat the potatoes with the spice mixture.
  5. Add 1 (14.5 ounce) can diced tomatoes, 1 cup frozen peas, 1 cup hot water, and 1/2 teaspoon garam masala (optional).
  6. Bring to a simmer, reduce heat to low, cover, and cook for 20-25 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender. Stir occasionally. If the curry becomes too thick, add a little more water. If it's too thin, simmer uncovered for a few more minutes to thicken.
  7. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed. Garnish with fresh cilantro (optional) before serving with rice and naan bread or roti.
