Directions
In a large pan, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat. Add cumin seeds and mustard seeds. Let them splutter.
Add the turmeric powder, coriander powder, cumin powder, garam masala, red chili powder, and salt. Stir for a minute to release the aroma.
Add the ginger-garlic paste and sauté until it turns golden brown.
Add the chopped tomatoes and cook until they become soft and the oil starts to separate from the mixture.
Add the potatoes and pointed gourd slices. Stir well to coat them with the spice mixture.
Add water to the pan, cover, and let it simmer on low heat for about 20 minutes or until the vegetables are cooked through and tender.
Once the vegetables are cooked and the gravy is thickened, garnish with chopped coriander leaves. Serve hot with roti or rice.
