Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 300 grams potatoes
- 400 grams cauliflower
- 1 large onion
- 1 medium tomato
- 1 inch piece ginger
- 2 cloves garlic
- 1 small green chili
- 1 teaspoon cumin seeds
- 1 teaspoon turmeric powder
- 1 teaspoon coriander powder
- 0.5 teaspoon garam masala
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon oil
- 100 milliliters water
- 2 tablespoons cilantro leaves
Instructions
Peel and dice the potatoes into 1-inch cubes. Cut the cauliflower into small florets.
Finely chop the onion, tomato, and cilantro leaves. Grate the ginger and garlic, and slit the green chili lengthwise.
In a large, non-stick pan, heat 1 tablespoon of oil over medium heat.
Add cumin seeds and let them splutter for about 30 seconds.
Add the chopped onion and sauté until golden brown.
Add grated ginger, garlic, and the green chili. Sauté for another minute, until fragrant.
Stir in the chopped tomato and cook until it softens, about 3 minutes.
Add turmeric powder, coriander powder, and salt. Stir well to combine the spices.
Add potatoes and cauliflower florets to the pan. Mix to coat the vegetables in the spice mixture evenly.
Pour in 100 milliliters of water. Cover the pan and let it simmer on low heat for about 20 minutes, or until the vegetables are cooked and tender.
Stir occasionally to prevent sticking and ensure even cooking.
Once the vegetables are done, uncover and sprinkle garam masala. Mix well.
Garnish with chopped cilantro leaves before serving.
Serve hot with roti or rice for a wholesome meal.
