STEP 1

Preheat convection oven to 200 °C or use an air fryer.

STEP 2

Peel the potatoes and cut them into 2-by-2-inch cubes. Put them in a baking dish and spread the olive oil over them. Mix well and season with salt and pepper to taste. Bake the potatoes for about 30 minutes in the oven or 25 minutes in an air fryer at 200 °C.

STEP 3

Start with the sauce: chop the onion and ginger and stew them for 10 minutes in the oil over medium heat until they turn golden brown. Add in the chopped garlic and continue to simmer on low heat for a few more minutes. Then add in the diced tomatoes, peas, vegetable bouillon and garam masala. Continue to simmer on low heat for about 15 minutes. Stir occasionally.

STEP 4

Fry the veggie balls in oil.

STEP 5

When the sauce is almost ready, stir in the yogurt and chopped fresh cilantro and add the fried veggie balls.

STEP 6

Serve the masala balls with the baked potatoes and top with some extra fresh cilantro if desired. Enjoy!
