Method

1. Boil the tomatoes, garlic, and dried red chillies until soft, then blend into a smooth paste.
2. Heat the mustard oil and temper the kalonji and saunf.
3. Add the tomato-chilli paste and cook until it darkens, turns glossy, and thickens slightly.
4. Stir the besan with a little water, add it to the gravy, and cook for 2-3 minutes, thinning with water as needed.
5. Add the boiled potatoes and simmer until the gravy is spicy, tangy, and thick enough to coat them.
6. Crush the dry Wai Wai noodles into a bowl and pour the hot gravy over them, so some noodles soften and some stay crunchy.
7. Top with onion, coriander, green chilli, lemon juice, and Wai Wai masala, and eat right away.
