Sounds nice! I do a version of this, but don't use tomatoes, although I might try it with.
I use garam masala (about a heaped tablespoon) and omit garlic.

I only par boil the cubes of potato

Then fry off the onions and potato, stir in the garam masala, add salt. Then add a bit of water, and cover the pan. Keep checking until cooked, adding a bit of water as needed. Add a bit of sugar if a bit too spicy or bitter. I prefer the potatoes a bit soft, and ever-so-slightly mash them with a fork. Not mash MASH, more stirred together roughly. I also add peas nearer the end. It's also really nice with green beans.
