Ingredients

  • cup (80 ml) oil
  • 1 (110 g) medium onion finely chopped
  • 1 tablespoon minced ginger
  • 6 cloves garlic minced
  • 2 green chillies
  • 1.5 teaspoon salt or to taste
  • 0.5 teaspoon red chilli powder
  • 0.5 teaspoon turmeric
  • 2 teaspoon cumin seeds
  • 2 teaspoon coriander powder
  • 3 ½ cup (350 g) cauliflower, raw and cut into florets (one small head)
  • 1 ½ cup (150 g) potatoes, peeled and chopped into cubes 2 medium sized
  • 2 (240 g) tomatoes chopped or pureed
  • Fresh coriander for garnish

Instructions

  • Heat the oil in a pot or pan. Add the onions, ginger and garlic and fry them over a medium-high heat, till they begin to turn golden
  • Add the spices and green chillies. Fry for 2-3 minutes
  • Add the potatoes and cauliflower pieces. Allow these to fry for 3-4 minutes. It may start to smell like roasted spices - this is a good thing!
  • Add the tomatoes in. Give everything a stir - if things look like they need a splash of water, add some in. We really want to avoid adding excess water in, so please only add water if you think the curry will burn without it
  • Turn the heat to low, put the lid on and allow everything to steam-cook. Ideally, we want to avoid adding water, but keep checking in between. If you do need to add water, add a very small amount at a time.
  • Once the cauliflower and potatoes are tender, turn off the heat. Garnish with fresh coriander.
