Main Ingredients
Cooking Method
Preparation
Combine cauliflower, carrots, and bell peppers in a bowl. Set aside.
Heat 2 teaspoons of oil in a heavy, nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add cumin seeds and cook until they are golden brown, about 10 seconds.
Cooking
Add diced onions to the skillet and sauté for 2-3 minutes until they are translucent.
Add the combined vegetables, ginger, turmeric, coriander powder, salt, and cayenne pepper to the skillet. Stir fry for about 1 minute.
Cover the skillet with a lid, reduce the heat to medium-low, and cook for 8-10 minutes or until the vegetables are tender but firm, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.
Open the lid and sprinkle mango powder and garam masala over the vegetables. Stir carefully in a lifting and turning fashion to distribute the spices evenly.
Drizzle the remaining oil around the sides of the skillet, allowing it to seep to the bottom. Stir fry for an additional 3-4 minutes, stirring once or twice, to enhance the color and flavor of the dish.
Serving
Transfer the Curried Cauliflower, Carrots, and Mixed Vegetables to a serving platter. Garnish with chopped cilantro.
