Now add cumin powder, red chilli, coriander, black pepper, garam masala powder, salt & black salt into the mashed potatoes and mix it properly.
Next, take the washed tomatoes and cut the upper half of the tomatoes & cut then pull out the pulp of the tomato. Stuff the tomatoes with mashed potatoes.
Next heat up 2-3 tablespoon of oil in a flat surface pan and put the tomatoes in the pan with the potato stuffed side down. Let it cook for 10-15 minutes until the tomatoes start getting a bit mushy.
