Aloo Matar (Potatoes and Peas)

As usual, cut onion, garlic and ginger and brown in oil (no ginger in the fridge today):


 beautiful browning:


then add a couple karchis (big Indian spoon measurement) of crushed tomato (so it would be like say 1/4th to 1/2 cup worth of tomato), peas, salt, pepper, garam masala (coriander and cumin powders, haldi (turmeric) and mirchi (red spice):


add a lot of water and cook peas for a long time:



then add potatoes (I accidentally boiled the potatoes beforehand for a while. do not boil the potatoes. just cut and peel them and put them in mixture. obviously I don't cook aloo matar often):


 cover and cook:
