Mix in the turmeric powder, coriander powder, garam masala, red chili powder, and salt. Stir well to combine.
Add the diced potatoes and cauliflower florets to the pan, stirring to coat the vegetables with the spice mixture.
Pour in the water, cover the pan, and simmer for 15-20 minutes, or until the potatoes and cauliflower are tender.
