Sometimes cooking a meal depends on what things are available in the kitchen. Potatoes and tomatoes are mostly available in every kitchen, or at least in our kitchen.
So, we went ahead and prepared the most obvious curry, the potato curry, but with a different style, because, who wants to eat the same food again.
This potato curry goes perfect with puris, gives you a very nice flavour (because of the ingredients we have used) and makes a perfect breakfast.
