Method

Heat the oil in a large pan over a low-medium heat. Add the mustard and cumin seeds and cook for 1-2 minutes until they begin to sizzle. Stir in the onion and cook, stirring, for 10-12 minutes or until golden.
Mix in the garlic, ginger and chilli and cook for 2 minutes, then stir in the tomatoes, salt and spices. Turn the heat to high and cook for 2 minutes. Stir in the peas, cauliflower, potato and 50ml cold water. Cover with a lid, reduce the heat to low and cook for 20-30 minutes until the cauliflower and potato are tender.
Take the pan off the heat, sprinkle over the coriander and serve hot.
