Step 1: Prepare raw vegetables.

First of all, turn on the stove, place a full kettle of regular running water on it and bring the liquid to a boil. After using a knife to cut raw vegetables, peel the onions, ginger root, garlic, and cut off the stalk of the chili pepper and gut it from the seeds. Then we wash them under cold running water along with the cauliflower, potatoes in their skins and a bunch of cilantro.


Then we separate the cauliflower into inflorescences and put them in a deep saucepan. We also place the unpeeled potato tubers in a separate deep pan. Dry the rest of the vegetables with paper kitchen towels, and shake the greens over the sink to get rid of excess water.

Step 2: Blanch the tomatoes.



While the vegetables were being prepared, the kettle was boiling, it’s time to start working on the tomatoes; we make a small cut on the surface of each tomato, crosswise, put them in a deep bowl and pour boiling water so that it completely covers the tomatoes.


Soak them in hot water for 5 - 7 minutes and transfer them using a slotted spoon to a bowl of cold running water. When the tomatoes have cooled, remove them from the bowl, lightly pat them with paper kitchen towels and remove the skins.


Place them on a cutting board and cut them into small cubes up to 1 centimeter in diameter. Transfer the slices to a deep plate.

Step 3: Cook cauliflower and potatoes.



While the tomatoes are soaking in boiling water, alternately fill the pan with cabbage and potatoes with regular running water so that the liquid is above the level of the vegetables by 4 – 5 centimeters and place the containers on the stove, turned on at a high level. After boiling, reduce the temperature of both burners to medium and cook the cabbage for 5 minutes. Then, helping yourself with a kitchen towel, remove the pan from the stove and dump its contents into a colander. Leave the cabbage in a colander for 5 – 7 minutes, so that the boiling water goes away and transfer it to a deep bowl.


Boil potatoes for 20 – 25 minutes until soft. We check the readiness with a table fork; if it enters the vegetable pulp gently, without pressure, then the potatoes are ready, remove them from the pan using a slotted spoon, transfer them to a deep bowl and cool together with the cabbage to room temperature.

Step 4: Chop onion, ginger, garlic, cilantro and chili pepper.



There is no point in waiting until the potatoes and cabbage cool down; we immediately begin preparing other, important products. Place the onion on a cutting board and cut it into cubes up to 1 centimeter. Next, chop the garlic cloves into small pieces. Then we chop the ginger root and chili pepper, these can be the same cubes or straws up to 5 millimeters thick. They are followed by a small bunch of cilantro, we simply chop the greens finely and leave the slices on the cutting board.

Step 5: Prepare boiled potatoes.



After the potatoes have cooled, remove the peel, place the vegetable on a cutting board and cut into large cubes of 2 to 3 centimeters. Transfer the slices into a deep bowl. We also put salt and all the spices indicated in the ingredients on the kitchen table.

Step 6: fry the boiled potatoes.



It's time to start preparing the dish. Turn the stove on to medium level and place a frying pan on it with 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil. When the fat is hot, carefully place the potato cubes on the bottom of the frying pan and fry them, stirring with a kitchen spatula until lightly golden brown. This process will take approximately 5 – 7 minutes. After the potatoes are fried, transfer them back to the bowl and pour a new portion of vegetable oil into the frying pan, that is, another 1 - 2 tablespoons.

Step 7: fry the cabbage.



Heat the oil again and also carefully lower the cabbage inflorescences into it. Fry them until golden brown, stirring occasionally with a kitchen spatula to ensure even frying.


In about 7 – 8 minutes the vegetable will take on the desired color, transfer the cabbage back to the bowl with the potatoes.

Step 8: Bring the dish to full readiness.



Do not turn off the stove, place a clean frying pan on it and pour the remaining oil into it - 1 - 2 tablespoons. Lightly heat the fat and add onion and garlic into it. Stir-fry the vegetables for 2 – 3 minutes until light golden brown and translucent. Then add chopped ginger and chili pepper to the pan, add the required amount of cumin, coriander, turmeric and add chopped tomatoes. Let's simmer everything around 45 minutes.


When the tomatoes release their juice and soften, add fried potatoes, cabbage, cilantro and salt to taste. Mix all the ingredients of the dish until smooth, cover the pan with a lid and simmer for 5 minutes. Then turn off the stove and leave the vegetable yummy under the lid for another 5 – 6 minutes. After a while, arrange the aromatic dish in portions on plates and serve.

Step 9: Serve cauliflower with potatoes.



Cauliflower with potatoes is served hot as a main course or as a side dish for meat, fish or poultry dishes. If desired, each serving of this dish can be sprinkled with fresh, finely chopped dill, cilantro or parsley. This dish can also be supplemented with fresh vegetable salads, marinades or pickles. Enjoy!

Bon appetit!

The set of spices can be adjusted as desired by varying their quantity; it can also be supplemented with such spices as white allspice, ground bay leaf, savory, sage, and these are just a few of all the possible options.

Instead of fresh chili peppers and ginger, you can use dried and crushed versions of these ingredients.

Instead of fresh tomatoes, you can use canned tomatoes in their own juice without skin or tomato juice (250 milliliters).

Instead of cilantro, you can use dill or parsley.

How to cook vegetable cauliflower casserole with potatoes. Recipe

Grate the carrots through a coarse grater and chop the onion into small cubes. We do not remove the skin from the tomato; it does not interfere with the finished dish; we immediately cut it into pieces of any size. We divide the cabbage into small inflorescences.

Place the inflorescences in salted boiling water for a couple of minutes, just to change the color to translucent. We drain the water and leave the cabbage in a colander.

Sauté the onion slices in hot oil until soft. Add carrots and tomatoes, mix and simmer for a few minutes.

When the tomatoes are fried, transfer the steamed inflorescences and mix with mixed vegetables.

Soak in oil, add spices, a little turmeric for a more appetizing color. If you are cooking for children, use non-spicy spices with a pleasant aroma: paprika, nutmeg, Provençal mixture.

Boil the potatoes in advance in water with added salt or steam them in their skins. Cool, cut into pucks or slices.

It is more convenient to prepare a vegetable casserole by adding cauliflower and potatoes in portioned molds or in a frying pan or pan with sides. Place potatoes on the bottom of a greased pan.

Place fried vegetables on top. Lightly compact so that there is little space left from the top.
