Bell Pepper, Tomato, and Potato Indian Curry

This is an authentic, vegetarian, simple, and colorful main dish served with fluffy basmati rice or chapatis. I’m from India and I completely adore Indian cooking; I hope you like this recipe. A word of caution: it could be a little too hot for some folks…feel free to reduce or even skip the hot ingredients! Enjoy!
