    teaspoon ground coriander
    teaspoon ground cummin
    ¼teaspoon chilli powder
    ½teaspoon ground turmeric
    ½teaspoon salt
    chopped fresh coriander to garnish

    serve with tomato and onion salad and pickle of your choice

    Par boil potatoes for 10 minutes, drain and set aside.
    Heat oil in large pan (wok if you have one) over a medium heat and fry cummin seeds for 2 minutes until they begin to splutter. Add the fresh chilli and fry for further minute.
    Add cauli (add broccoli if you are using it) and stir fry for 5 minutes.

    Forgot to say - we served this with Lolabelle's creamy prawn curry and they were excellent together.

    I will definately give this a go next time I make the prawn dish, it sounds yum.

    Sounds good!!!!!
    Will try this one.
    Good to see people using spices instead of adding Curry powder.
    Like you I always make mine in my karai,which becomes a wok when i am making chinese!!
    Nothing beats the smell of the spices especially the cumin seed popping away.
    I am hungry and its early in the morning,looks like another long day
