    Boil the potatoes. Peel and let cool. Roughly crumble into chunks or
    cut into bite size pieces. Set aside

    Coarsely grind the fenugreek & coriander seeds. Keep aside.

    In a medium pot, heat up the oil on medium. Once the oil is hot,
    temper with cumin and let crackle. Reduce heat to low to ensure that
    they do not burn. Immediately add the hing, ginger, and green
    chillies. Let saute for a 30 seconds or so until they sizzle and
    immediately add the tomatoes. Also add the fenugreek & coriander
    seeds. Saute for 1 to 2 minutes until tomatoes start to soften. Add
    the turmeric, red chili powder, amchoor, and salt to taste to the pot
    along with the crumbled potatoes. On medium heat, stir around gently
    to coat the potatoes. Saute for another minute or so. Next, add the
    water and on medium heat let come to a boil. Once boiling, cover with
    a lid, reduce heat to very low and let simmer for 15 to 18 minutes.

    Add the garam masala next (if using) and chopped cilantro. Serve with
    hot pooris.
