Heat the oil in a large skillet or pan over medium heat.
Add cumin seeds and let them sizzle for 30 seconds until aromatic.
Stir in the chopped onions and sauté for 3-4 minutes until golden brown.
Add the ginger-garlic paste and cook for 1 minute until the raw aroma dissipates.
Mix in the chopped tomatoes and green chilies (if using). Cook for 5-7 minutes until the tomatoes soften and the oil starts to separate.
Add turmeric powder, coriander powder, red chili powder, and salt. Stir well to combine with the tomato mixture.
Add the diced potatoes and cauliflower florets. Mix everything well, ensuring the spices coat the vegetables evenly.
Cover and cook for 10-15 minutes on low-medium heat, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.
Once the potatoes and cauliflower are tender, add the green peas and cook for another 3-5 minutes until they are heated through.
Sprinkle garam masala and chopped cilantro over the dish. Mix gently to combine.
Serve hot with rice, roti, naan, or as a standalone dish!
