    Aloo sabzi is an easy vegetarian main or side that is equal part
    spicy and tangy. Have it for breakfast as a main with a side of poori
    or for dinner with roti.

    Heat oil. Add kalonji (nigella seeds) and fry for a few seconds until
    they begin to pop.

    Add chopped onion and brown on medium-low heat for 5 to 7 minutes.

    Add crushed ginger and garlic and fry for 30 seconds or until
    fragrant.

    Add ground spices (turmeric, red chili, and coriander powder) and fry
    for 30 to 60 seconds until aromatic. Splash with water to deglaze the
    pan if necessary.

    Add chili, tomatoes and salt. Fry on high heat to soften the tomatoes,
    about 5 minutes.

    Add potatoes and stir well to coat in masala.

    Add 1/2 to 1 cup water, just enough to cover the potatoes, and bring
    to boil. Lower heat and let the masala simmer in uncovered saucepan
    until potatoes are done. Check for salt and spice, and adjust as
    necessary.

    Turn off heat and gently fold in diced cilantro. Top with lemon juice.
    Place a tight fitting lid on the saucepan and let the potatoes steam
    for another 5 minutes.
