Ingredients
5 servings

1 tablespoonground coriander

¼ teaspoonturmeric

1 cupwater
divided

2 tablespoonspeanut oil

1serrano pepper
large, split down the middle leaving halves attached

1 teaspooncumin seeds

1 headcauliflower
small, cut into small florets

1russet potato
peeled and cut into 1/2 - inch cubes, similar size to cauliflower

kosher salt

2 tablespoonscilantro leaves
freshly minced, to garnish

½ cupcloves garlic
whole

½ cupfresh ginger
peeled, cut into 1/2 - inch slices

¼ cupcanola oil
Instructions
Step 1
Mix the Ginger-Garlic Paste, coriander, turmeric, and 1/2 cup water in a small bowl. This is a simple wet masala (spice mix). Set aside.
Step 2
In a large pot, warm the oil over medium-high heat until shimmering but not smoking. Add the serrano pepper, wait 30 seconds, and then add the cumin seeds and wait until they're done spluttering.
Step 3
Add the wet masala (careful, it will also splutter). Cook until the paste thickens, deepens in color slightly, and oil oozes out of the perimeter of the masala, about 2 minutes.
Step 4
Add the cauliflower and potatoes, stirring to coat the vegetables with the masala. Season with salt and add 1/2 cup water. Cover and cook over medium heat 10 to 15 minutes. Then, remove the lid, stir, and cook until the cauliflower and potatoes are cooked through, about 5 minutes. Garnish with cilantro and serve.
Step 5
Ginger-Garlic Paste:
Step 6
Throw the garlic, ginger, and canola oil in a mini-food processor and let it go until it forms a semi-smooth paste. There will still be tiny little pieces in there, but overall, it should resemble a paste.
Step 7
Save what you don't use in a small glass jar. It should last in the fridge for 2 to 3 weeks. It's a delicious addition to marinades, pasta sauces, stir fry sauces, slow-cooker recipes, gravy etc. We always had a jar of this stuff in our fridge growing up.
