Drain thoroughly. While the potatoes are cooking, saute the fenugreek seed in the oil on medium heat until light brown, being careful not to burn them. Add the onion and continue cooking for five minutes. Add the ginger and garlic and cook another five minutes. Add the spices and saute briefly to release their flavors. Add the tomato, the dried whole peppers, and a little water. Simmer until the flavors meld together. Cook on medium heat for about 30 minutes. Gently add the potatoes, stir, and reduce heat.
