3 Tbsp vegetable oil
2 tsp black mustard seed

DIRECTIONS
Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over low heat.
Stir mustard seed into hot oil; cook and stir until seeds start to crackle, about 30 seconds. Add garlic and cumin seeds; cook and stir until fragrant and golden--about 3-5 minutes.
Increase heat to medium, stir in tomatoes and potatoes. Bring to a boil. Add salt, cumin, cayenne pepper, coriander, and turmeric to the mixture; stir.
Cover and reduce heat to medium-low, and simmer for 15 minutes until potatoes are tender.
Mix in green pepper and lemon juice into the mixture. Add water if needed. Simmer for 5 more minutes.
Garnish with cilantro leaves and serve.
