Ideally the potatoes are boiled and left to cool in the fridge overnight.

By itself this is tasty, but not all that substantial. Definitely need a side.

Ingredients

  • 4 tbsp olive oil
  • 1/4 tsp whole cumin seeds
  • 1 large head cauliflower, cut into 1 inch florets
  • 3-4 medium waxy potatoes, boiled, cooled, diced into 3/4 inch pieces

  • 1 tsp ground cumin
  • 2 tsp ground coriander

  • 1/2 tsp salt (or to taste)

Instructions

  1. Combine spices in a bowl and add 1/4 cup of water. Mix and set aside.
  2. Put oil in large frying pan and set over medium heat. When hot, add cumin seeds, then quickly add the cauliflower and potatoes. Stir and cook for about 10 minutes (until veggies start browning).
