Step 1

Peel the potatoes and cut them into small cubes. Rinse and chop the cauliflower into small florets. Finely slice the onions. Chop the tomatoes. Grate or mince the ginger and garlic. Slice the green chilies.

Step 2

Heat the vegetable oil in a large pan over medium heat. Add the cumin seeds and let them sizzle for about 30 seconds until aromatic.

Add the chopped tomatoes to the pan and cook until they soften, about 3-4 minutes.

Step 7

Add the cubed potatoes and cauliflower florets to the pan. Stir to coat the vegetables with the spice mixture.

Pour in the cup of water, add salt, and mix everything well. Cover the pan with a lid and let the vegetables cook for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the potatoes and cauliflower are tender.
