1 cup onions (chopped finely)
1 cup tomatoes (red ripe , chopped or pureed)
1 green chili (slit )
1 tsp ginger (grated or ginger paste)
1 sprig curry leaves ((optional))
1 to 1 ½ tsp Coriander powder ((optional))
½ to 1 tsp garam masala (or any curry powder as desired)
½ tsp red chili powder
1/8 tsp turmeric
Salt ( as needed)
2 tbsps Oil ( as needed)
¼ tsp mustard ((optional))
½ tsp cumin
1 Pinch hing (or asafoetida (optional))

Steps:

  • If you do not have coriander powder, add 2 tsps. Coriander seeds and then garam masala powder and red chili powder to a dry blender jar and powder together. That helps to make a fine powder.
  • Heat oil in a pan, add cumin, mustard, and allow them to splutter. Add hing, ginger and then the curry leaves. Fry together till you smell the ginger good. Do not burn.
  • Add onions, & green chilies. Fry till they turn golden.
  • Next add tomatoes and sprinkle salt, turmeric. Saute for 2 mins
  • On a low flame cover and cook till the tomatoes turn soft and mushy. The onion tomato mixture should blend well.
  • While the tomatoes cook, you can peel and cube the sweet potatoes, add them to water till we use.
  • Add chili powder, garam masala, coriander powder and red chili powder. Fry for about 1 to 2 minutes without burning.
  • Next add sweet potato cubes, pour the same water we used to keep them. Just use enough water to immerse the sweet potatoes.
  • Cook on a low flame, till they are soft cooked. You can adjust salt and spice at this stage.
  • Keep covered for about 15 minutes for the flavors to absorb well by the sweet potato curry. Garnish with coriander leaves.
