1

Heat the oil on medium-high heat and add cumin seeds. Once the cumin seeds start to change color add diced onions and whole red chilies. Cook until the onion becomes slightly golden for about 2-3 minutes.
2

Once the onion is slightly golden, add ginger garlic paste to the pan. Sautee ginger & garlic paste until fragrant, this takes only a few seconds.
3

Add cubed potatoes once the tomatoes are soft. Mix well to coat the potatoes with sauce. Turn the heat down to low and cover the pan.
4

Now add diced tomatoes, all the powdered spices, and salt to taste. Cook on medium heat while stirring in between the cooking until tomatoes soften.

Cook on low for 7-9 minutes or just until potatoes are tender. Uncover and check the potatoes in between cooking. If needed add 1-2 tablespoon of water to speed up the cooking process.

Once the potatoes are tender, add all the roughly chopped spinach. Cover the pan and let the spinach wilt for easy mixing. Takes less than 1 minute for spinach to start wilting with

Uncover the pan and mix everything gently. Turn the heat up to medium and cook until all the water from the spinach completely evaporates. Takes about 3-5 minutes depending on your stove.Add garam masala, mix well
