In a large sauce pan over medium-high heat, add oil. When the oil is hot, add mustard seeds and cumin seeds.

Add the garlic and ginger and stir for about another minute. Add the tomatoes and cook for 1 minute. Stir in cumin powder, coriander powder, turmeric powder, and red chili powder. Cook for 3 minutes and then add diced potatoes.

Let it simmer covered for about 20 to 30 minutes, or until the potatoes are fork tender, stirring occasionally. Season with salt to taste and enjoy with rice, naan, chapati, or paratha.
