You start by putting your potatoes into a pot filled with water and letting them boil. While they get soft, you can prepare the yoghurt. Mix the glass of water into the yoghurt and blend it so that it gets nicely liquid. Another thing that you can prepare while the potatoes are boiling is the ginger. Peel it and cut it into very small pieces. They should be as small as you can cut. If your potatoes are not done yet, you can wash and pick the coriander leaves, too. Cut them into small pieces if you like or keep them complete, if you prefer that.

You can check whether the potatoes are boiled by taking a kitchen knife and sticking it into one potato. You will notice immediately whether it is soft enough or still hard and uncooked. As soon as they are cooked, take them out, wash them once with cold water and then start peeling them. Cut them into medium-sized pieces.

In the next step you heat up the oil in a deep pan. Once it is hot, add cumin, mustard seeds, garam masala, coriander, the pieces of fresh ginger, the curry leaves and finally the turmeric. Stir the spices nicely until they have developed their aroma. Then you add the potatoes and stir for about a minute.

In the end you add the yoghurt and water mix and salt according to your taste. Let the mixture boil for about five minutes. You will see that the yoghurt curdles, which is normal and a part of this dish. Now just wait, boil it once and then switch your stove off.

Now you can spread the fresh coriander on top like a dressing and there you are, you have a delicious dish! It did not take much time and you can easily make it with little effort.
