Coconut free Potato Kurma



This is my mother-in-law's recipe. I like this kurma as much as I love potato. The special thing about this recipe is it is prepared without coconut. This kurma is suitable for people who prepare dishes without coconut.

Ingredients:

  • Potato medium size - 2
  • Big Onion - 1 
  • Mustard - to splutter
  • Curry leaves - 1 sprig
  • water - 2 cups
  • Coriander leaves - For Garnishing
  • Oil - 2 tsp
To Grind:
  • Small Onion -  6 nos
  • Tomato - 1 samll size
  • Garlic pods - 3 nos
  • Red Chilli - 2 nos
  • coriander seeds - 1 tsp
  • Cumin/Jeera - 1 tsp
  • Turmeric - 1/4 tsp
Preparation:

Wash Potatoes, cut into pieces (so that it is cooked quickly) and cook for about 4 whistles. In the mean time we can prepare for masala.

Grind all the Ingrediends under grind and keep it aside. 



By this time the potatoes are cooked well. Peel off the skin, smash lightly by your hand(if it is over smashed it becomes like podimas) and add some water to it, till floating level.



Take a Pan. Add oil, mustard curry leaves, onion and the grinded masala. Fry for 2 mins. 



Add some water to it and let it boil for 2 mins. Then add the cooked potatoes and salt along with this mixture, close the lid, let it cook for about 5 mins.



Check for the consistency of the kurma. It should not be too much diluted. It should be little thick. Finally garnish with coriander leaves.



Now Coconut free Potato Kurma is ready. It goes well with Idly, Dosa and even for chappathis.
