Instructions
Wash the cauliflower thoroughly and cut it into bite-sized florets.
Finely slice the green chilies, chop the tomatoes, and dice the onion. Mince the garlic cloves.
Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
Add the cumin seeds to the hot oil and let them sizzle for about 30 seconds until aromatic.

Cover the skillet with a lid and simmer for 12-15 minutes on medium-low heat, stirring occasionally, until the cauliflower is tender and the tomatoes have broken down to create a sauce.
