Step 1
Heat 2 tbsp oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add whole spices and let them crackle for 30 seconds until fragrant.
Step 2
Add diced onion and cook, stirring often, until golden and soft, about 4 minutes. Stir in ginger-garlic paste and cook until fragrant, 90 seconds.
Step 3
Sprinkle in kashmiri chili powder and stir constantly for 30 seconds so it doesn't burn. Add crushed tomatoes and stir to combine.
Step 4
Whisk yogurt in a small bowl, then stir into the gravy. Add potatoes, salt to taste, and 0.5 cup water. Stir well.
Step 5
Bring to a simmer over medium heat. Cover and cook until potatoes are tender, 12–15 minutes. Stir once halfway through.
Step 6
Taste and adjust salt and spice. Serve in bowls, topped with fresh herbs. Scatter cherry tomatoes alongside and serve green chutney on the side.
