Wash the cauliflower and cut it into medium-sized florets. Blanch the florets in boiling water for 3-4 minutes, then drain and set aside.
Soak the cashews in warm milk for 10 minutes. Blend them into a smooth paste and set aside.
Heat oil in a large pan over medium heat. Add cumin seeds and let them sizzle for a few seconds.
Add the finely chopped onions and sauté until golden brown, about 5-7 minutes.
Stir in the ginger-garlic paste and sauté for another minute until fragrant.
Add the pureed tomatoes, turmeric powder, coriander powder, red chili powder, and salt. Cook the mixture for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the oil begins to separate.
Lower the heat and add the yogurt gradually, stirring continuously to prevent curdling.
Mix in the cashew paste and cook for another 2-3 minutes, allowing the flavors to blend.
Add 1 cup of water and bring the mixture to a gentle simmer. Adjust the water quantity for desired gravy consistency.
Add the blanched cauliflower florets and the slit green chili. Cover and cook on low heat for 10 minutes or until the cauliflower is tender but not mushy.
Sprinkle garam masala and give the curry a final stir.
Garnish with chopped cilantro and serve hot with naan, roti, or steamed rice.
