Steamed Aloo Curry (potato)

This is my All time favorite among all the Steamed food that i have done so far. Its soft, tasty and with the right amount of spices, tastes just like the regular dish, but steamed :)

Ingredients:

2 Potatoes (peeled and chopped into 1/2 inch cubes)
1/4th Onion (long thin)
1 Tbs Olive Oil
3 Green chillies (long slit into halves)
1/4th stick of Curry Leaves
1 tsp Salt
1/4 tsp Turmeric Powder
1/2 tsp Red chilli powder
1/2 tsp Ginger garlic Paste
1/2 tsp Cumin powder (jeera)
2 tbs lemon juice (or 1/2 small lemon)

Instructions:
Mix everything in the bowl, in the steamer lower area, add 3 Cups Water, in the steamer basket add the above mix, and steam it for 30 Minutes. Garnish with some lemon juice on top.

Tips:
After steaming, do a taste test, and add ingredients as needed to suit your spice levels, it should be done within the last few minutes of steaming, so it mixes well.
