Quick and easy Restaurant style Instant Pot Potato Curry is a time saver when your family demands poori and potato curry in an hour.
This south Indian Restaurant style Instant Pot Potato curry goes well with dosa, poori or any bread as a side dish.
This potato masala is very famous in all Indian restaurants in the southern part of India. Normally we boil potatoes and all the spice comes from green chilli no spice powder is used in this recipe. Potato masala is a very simple recipe with an instant pot. This technique involves 3 steps boiling potatoes and adding to the onion and oil mix and steaming for a minute.
You can also do it as a one-pot recipe by just peeling the skin of potatoes and following the below step in saute mode, add potatoes and pressure cook for 10 minutes and release naturally.
I have used 5 medium-sized potatoes,3 green chillies(slit), 1-inch ginger, some asafetida (helps in relieving gas caused by potatoes),1 red onion and some cilantro leaves for this recipe. If you enjoy Indian curry recipes please try this recipe instant pot curry recipe I posted last week.
