Ingredients:

• 2 cups cauliflower florets
• 2 medium-sized potatoes, peeled and cubed
• 1 medium-sized onion, finely chopped
• 2 tomatoes, finely chopped
• 2 cloves of garlic, minced
• 1-inch piece of ginger, grated
• 1 green chili, finely chopped (optional for heat)

• 1/2 teaspoon garam masala
• Salt to taste

2. Add chopped onion and sauté until golden brown and caramelized.
3. Add minced garlic, grated ginger, and chopped green chili if using. Sauté for a minute until fragrant.

7. Season with salt and sprinkle garam masala over the mixture. Stir gently to combine.
8. Cover the pan and cook on medium-low heat for about 15-20 minutes, or until the potatoes and cauliflower are tender. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
