Potatoes and peas cooked with tomatoes and light spice, a very simple and one of the most famous combination of ingredients. This dish comes to the rescue when needed something quick, at least with the frozen peas. I normally use matar (dry peas) by soaking it overnight and then preparing the curry. This dish can be prepared with or without lot of spices and will still taste good. !
