To make the south Indian style seasoning (which is optional as explained in the instant pot mixed vegetable curry mentioned above), you can heat 1 tablespoon of oil (preferably coconut oil) and saute (using the saute function in instant pot in low setting) 1 teaspoon of brown mustard seeds, curry leaves and few dry red chilies until they are lightly fried for a few seconds. Make sure to splutter the mustard seeds before adding the curry leaves and red chilies, as they may taste bitter otherwise.
If you are making a seasoning, you may skip the curry leaves and red chilies from garnishing (which is optional as well but you can still add the cilantro leaves for garnishing if you like) as you are adding them while preparing the seasoning.
However, I didn’t add the seasoning, since I just added some curry leaves at the end and the simple and easy potato curry is still very delicious and flavorful from the potatoes, onions and spices I used for cooking!
