Magic Cubes Potato with Capsicum


Does it look like a bowl of fresh fruit salad to you? Yeah, it does to me too ;) So I struggled to bring a 'Curry' look to it and stuck some red chillies for the second and third pic I took, but it looked too made up, so I conveniently chopped off that part... ;)
Yes, this is yet another experiment which I did today...This recipe is dedicated to all working
spinsters and bachelors because this consumes less time, less effort and truly incredible!

Before you start, there is a pre-requisite to prepare this dish. :) You should have 'Maggi Magic Cubes Vegetarian Masala' handy. It comes in a pack of 10 cubes for Rs. 25. Not a bad deal, right? ;)

Magic Cubes Potato with Capsicum Recipe



Ingredients
Potato - 1 large, cubed
Onion - 1 large, diced

Tomato - 2 medium, chopped

Capsicum - 1/2 cup / 1 small, diced

Red Chilly - 4, chopped

Maggi Magic Cubes - 2

Ginger-garlic paste - 1 tsp

Red chilly powder - 1 tsp

Turmeric powder - 1/2 tsp

Refined Oil / Cooking Oil - 1 tbsp

Mustard seeds - 1 tsp

Curry leaves - a few

Salt - one pinch


Note: Magic cubes already have salt in it, so add more salt at the end only if it is required.

Method
  1. Heat oil in a pan, add the mustard seeds and let it splutter.
  2. Add onion, red chillies, curry leaves and saute for a minute.
  3. Lower the flame and add ginger-garlic paste, turmeric powder, chilly powder, chopped tomato and potato, one pinch of salt (not more) and saute it well.
  4. Pour adequate amount of water and cook it covered on low flame for 10 minutes.
  5. At the end add Maggi Magic Cubes and capsicum and cook it covered for another 5 minutes until the gravy becomes thick.
  6. Turn off the stove and serve it hot with roti / chappathi / dosa.

So go ahead and give it a try! I feel potato tastes the best with capsicum and I truly loved it!!! :)
