Tips:
As we are frying the vegetables here, use a frying pan having depth so that potatoes and cauliflower get fried up nicely using less oil/
Cauliflowers splatter while adding it in oil so be at a bit distance.
You can test if the oil is hot enough for frying by adding a cumin seed into it; if the cumin seed start crackling and comes up its good to go.
Pierce the potatoes before frying so that it gets soft inside and absorbs all the spices and salt nicely.
