Notes
If you like second helpings, use a large cauliflower and add a couple of potatoes more.
Omit chili if you do not like spicy dishes. Are more chili if you like curries hot and spicy. You can add some minced garlic with the cumin, ginger, and chili.
If you want to impress, cook the cauliflower and potatoes before adding them to the pan:
- Sauté or bake if you want a deeper flavor.
- Steam or par-boil if you want a softer texture.
