👨‍🍳 步驟

1. 1

   Prepare the vegetables: Wash and cut the cauliflower into bite-sized florets. Peel the potatoes and cut them into roughly 1-inch cubes. Finely chop the onion, tomatoes, and green chilies. Grate or mince the ginger.

   ⏱️ 10 minutes
2. 2

   Temper the spices: Heat the oil or ghee in a large, heavy-bottomed pan or pot over medium heat (180°C / 350°F). Once shimmering, add the cumin seeds. Let them sizzle and turn golden brown, about 30 seconds, releasing their aroma.

3. 3

   Sauté aromatics: Add the chopped onion to the pan and sauté until softened and translucent, about 5-7 minutes. Stir in the minced ginger and chopped green chilies, and cook for another minute until fragrant.

   ⏱️ 7 minutes
4. 4

   Add tomatoes and turmeric: Stir in the chopped tomatoes and turmeric powder. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the tomatoes break down and the oil starts to separate from the mixture, indicating it's well-cooked, about 5-7 minutes.

   ⏱️ 7 minutes
5. 5

   Combine vegetables and cook: Add the cauliflower florets and potato cubes to the pan. Season generously with salt. Stir well to coat all the vegetables evenly with the spice mixture. Ensure no water is added; the vegetables will release their own moisture.

   ⏱️ 2 minutes
6. 6

   Simmer until tender: Reduce the heat to low (140-150°C / 280-300°F), cover the pan tightly, and let the vegetables steam-cook. Stir gently every 5-7 minutes to prevent sticking and ensure even cooking. Cook for 15-20 minutes, or until the potatoes and cauliflower are fork-tender but not mushy.

   ⏱️ 20 minutes
7. 7

   Finish and garnish: Once the vegetables are tender, stir in the garam masala. Cook for another minute, uncovered, to allow the flavors to meld. Taste and adjust salt if needed. Garnish generously with fresh chopped cilantro before serving.
