2 Method

Step 1. Heat oil in a large heavy-bottomed pan or wok over medium heat. Add cumin seeds and let them sizzle for 30 seconds until fragrant.

Step 2. Add the cubed potatoes and a pinch of salt. Sauté for 5-7 minutes until they start to develop a light golden crust.

Step 3. Add the cauliflower florets, turmeric, and another pinch of salt. Toss well to coat the vegetables in the spiced oil.

Step 4. Cover the pan with a tight-fitting lid and turn the heat to low. Cook for 10-12 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are tender but not mushy.

Step 5. Remove the lid and add the julienned ginger, green chilies, chili powder, and amchur. Increase heat to medium-high and stir-fry for 3-4 minutes to brown the edges of the cauliflower.

Step 6. Sprinkle with garam masala and fresh cilantro. Give it a final gentle toss and serve hot with roti or paratha.

·
Do not add water; cooking the vegetables in their own steam under a lid ensures the best texture and concentrated flavor.
·
Ensure the cauliflower florets are completely dry before adding them to the pan to prevent them from becoming soggy.
·
If you don't have amchur, a squeeze of fresh lemon juice at the very end provides the necessary tang.
·
Cut the potatoes smaller than the cauliflower florets since potatoes take longer to cook.
