2. Asafoetida (Heeng) - 1/2 tsp
3. Dry red chilli - 1

13. Mango puree - 1 cup
14. Raw mango - 1/2 cup (cut into small pieces)
15. Onion - 1 small (chopped)
16. Ghee - 2 tsp
17. Kashmiri chilli powder - 1/2 tsp

Process

1. The main thing of this recipe is the flavor, that will come alive when there is a balance between sweet and sour, so taste the curry and if you think that it needs more sweetness, you can add some sugar and if it needs more sourness you can add more raw mango pieces or you can use amchur powder also.

2. Heat a pan and drizzle oil, sprinkle heeng, red dry chilli, methi, kalonji and funnel seeds. Stir well and add chopped ginger. Add onion and raw mango pieces. Cook them for few minutes and add boiled baby potatoes. Add little salt and cook for 2-3 minutes on medium flame.

3. Now add powder spices, turmeric, red chilli powder and give a quick toss. Add freshly made mango puree and let it cook till the curry thickens. Sprinkle little water and bring it to boil and simmer for 2 minutes. 

4. Here at this stage, check the taste and adjust the seasoning. 

5. In another small pan heat ghee and add kashmiri chilli powder and then immediately add it on the potatoes. Mix this tempering of ghee and chillies nicely with the curry and remove it from flame. Serve hot with roti or parathas.
