5. Add the remaining oil in pan. Temper with whole cumin seeds and bay leaf.
6. Add the chopped onions and green chillies. Cook until onions turn translucent.
7. Add the tomato and cook until tomatoes are cooked and turn mushy.
8. In a small bowl add ginger paste, garlic paste, turmeric, red chilli, cumin and coriander powder. Add 1 Tbsp water and mix well to make a smooth paste.
9. Add the masala paste and cook for few minutes until masala releases oil.
10. Add the fried jackfruit, potato. Add 1/2 cup water. Add salt. Give a good stir. Cover with a lid and cook on medium flame until everything blends well.
