Heat 1.5 tbsp oil in a pan at medium heat and add whole spices and fenugreek seeds. Stir for a few seconds and add onion, ginger, garlic and green chilies. Stir until onion turns transparent and add turmeric powder, chilly powder and coriander powder. Saute until their raw smell is gone. Add cubed potatoes and carrots. Mix well.
