2 teaspoons curry powder

2 teaspoons garam masala

1 teaspoon ground ginger

Bring potatoes to boil in large pot, add cauliflower and simmer for approximately 10 minutes until both are tender (alternatively steam cauliflower over potatoes).

Sauté onion and garlic until onions are soft. Stir in all spices and seasonings. Cook for 1–2 minutes. Combine with crushed tomatoes, coconut milk, chickpeas, drained potatoes and cauliflower. Simmer for at least 5 minutes.

Serve with over basmati rice or with naan bread.
