Heat ghee or coconut oil in a large pan over medium heat.
Add the cumin seeds and mustard seeds. Let them crackle for about 30 seconds.
Stir in the minced garlic and ginger paste. Sauté for about a minute until fragrant.
Add the turmeric powder, red chili powder, and coriander powder. Stir for another 30 seconds to combine the spices with the oil.
Add the chopped tomatoes to the pan and cook until they soften, about 3-4 minutes.
Mix in the potato and pumpkin cubes, stirring to coat them well with the spice mixture.
Add salt and water, then cover the pan with a lid. Cook on low-medium heat for about 20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the potatoes and pumpkin are tender.
Once cooked, adjust salt to taste and garnish with fresh cilantro.
Serve hot as a delightful Paleo side dish with your favorite main course.
