Cooking Method
Preparation
Combine cauliflower, carrots, and peppers in a bowl. Set aside.
Cooking
Heat 2 teaspoons oil in a heavy, nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add cumin seeds and cook for a few seconds until seeds are golden brown.
Add onions and sauté for 2-3 minutes until translucent.
Add vegetables and stir. Add ginger, turmeric, ground coriander, salt, and cayenne pepper. Stir-fry for about 1 minute.
Cover with a lid, reduce heat, and cook for 8-10 minutes until vegetables are tender but firm, stirring 1-2 times to avoid sticking to the bottom.
Open lid and sprinkle mango powder and garam masala. Stir carefully in a lifting and turning fashion.
Drizzle the remaining oil around the sides of the pan, allowing the oil to get to the bottom of the pan. Stir-fry for 3-4 minutes, stirring once or twice in the same lifting and turning fashion.
Serving
Transfer to a serving platter. Garnish with cilantro.
