Directions

In a sauce pan heat oil, fry dried red chilies until dark. Add onions and sautee until light brown. Add cumin, coriander, chili powder, ginger, garlic, salt, and pepper. Fry for 1 min under low heat. Add potatoes to the onion mixture and sautee for 5 min in medium heat. Sprinkle water if it starts to burn. Add soaked beans, bamboo shoots, tomatoes, yogurt, and broth to the potatoes mixture; stir well. Bring to a boil, and let simmer for 15-20 min. under low heat until potatoes are fork-tender, and the gravy has attained its desired consistency. Garnish with chopped cilantro. Serve with rice, or roti.
