Rasawala Bateta

Rasawala Bateta was one of our favorites when we were growing up. We only got to eat this when mom ran out of other vegetables and she was left with potatoes in her pantry. If we went out for weddings, our got together with our extended family, this curry always made an appereacne. The sweetness from the potato and the tanginess from the tomatos are balanced so well and the red chili powder adds the perfect spice. It reminds me of lazy Sunday afternoons when mom made this with Hot Puris. The instant pot version is so easy and sometimes I toss it all together and set a timer for it to turn on few hours later so my husband can enjoy this for lunch. You can pair this with khichi, rotis, puris, thepla or rice.
