I have had this recipe for batata rassa<\/a>, potatoes in a wet gravy, in my “to try” items for quite a while now. \u00a0I used the recipe just as an idea, adding onions and tomato, and changing the order and amounts here and there. I used a pressure pan, which is just a smaller pressure cooker, but a normal pan will work just fine. They were ready in just a few minutes! The coconut, goda masala<\/a>\u00a0(more about goda masala here<\/a>), and peanut powder gave these potatoes so much depth. I love these potatoes!<\/p>\n

1 tablespoon coconut oil
\n1\/2 teaspoon mustard seeds
\n1\/2 teaspoon cumin seeds
\n1-2 onions
\n3 garlic cloves
\n1-2 teaspoons ginger minced
\n1\/2 cup desiccated coconut
\n1\/8 to 1\/4 cup roasted peanuts
\n1\/2 teaspoon turmeric
\n1 teaspoon chili powder
\n1 tablespoon coriander powder
\n1 teaspoon goda masala
\n1 tomato chopped
\n2 medium russet potatoes peeled and chopped
\nSalt<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Heat coconut oil in a pressure cooker\/pan or medium sauce\/stock pan.<\/li>\n
  2. Add mustard seeds and cumin seeds.<\/li>\n
  3. Once they sizzle, add the onions and saute for a few minutes.<\/li>\n
  4. Meanwhile grind the coconut, peanuts, garlic, ginger (using a coffee grinder or small food processor) and add to the onions. Cook stirring quite a bit for a couple of minutes.<\/li>\n
  5. Add turmeric, chili powder, coriander powder, goda masala, tomaotes, potatoes, salt, and 2-3 cups of water.<\/li>\n
  6. Cook in the pressure pan for about 2 whistles or in a normal pan until the potatoes are tender.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
