Finely shred the cabbage, peel and dice the carrots and potatoes into small cubes, and set them aside.
Chop the onion and tomatoes, and finely mince the garlic and ginger.
Heat the vegetable oil in a large pan or pot over medium heat.
Add the cumin seeds and allow them to sizzle for about 30 seconds until aromatic.
Add the chopped onion and sauté for 4-5 minutes until translucent.
Stir in the minced garlic and ginger, and sauté for another 1 minute.
Add the diced tomatoes and cook for 5-6 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the tomatoes break down and form a paste.
Mix in the turmeric powder, coriander powder, red chili powder, and salt. Stir well to combine the spices.
Add the diced potatoes, carrots, and shredded cabbage. Mix everything thoroughly so the vegetables are coated with the spice mixture.
Pour in the water, cover the pot, and let the vegetables simmer for 10-12 minutes over medium heat or until the potatoes and carrots are tender.
Stir in the green peas, coconut milk, and garam masala. Cook uncovered for an additional 5-7 minutes to allow the flavors to meld and the curry to thicken slightly.
Taste and adjust the seasoning with more salt if needed.
Garnish with fresh cilantro leaves and serve hot with steamed rice, naan, or flatbread.
