INSTRUCTIONS:

Place the oil in a large heavy based pan, over a medium heat.

When hot add the cumin seeds and mix for half a minute.

Add ginger, garlic and mix for a minute.

Next add the coriander, cumin and cayenne pepper and mix for a few seconds. Add potatoes and cook covered for 2 minutes. Then add turmeric and cauliflower and 100ml water, mix and continue.

Cover and cook potatoes and cauliflower on low heat for 10-15 minutes until they are just about getting tender. Stir every 5 minutes or so and make sure the vegetables are not sticking to the base of the pan. Add salt and peas and a few drops of oil. Mix gently. Cover and cook on low for another 5 minutes or so until the vegetables are tender to your preference. Finally stir through the chopped tomatoes. Leave to warm for a minute or so before scattering freshly chopped coriander over the top.
