in the same pan over high heat. Add the cauliflower, season with salt, and
saute until it begins to color in places, after a few minutes. Return the
onion to the pan and add the garlic, spices, and potatoes. Lower the heat
and cook until everything is heated through, about 4 minutes. Add the
greens, carrot, and 1/2 cup water. Cover and cook until the greens are
wilted, about a minute. Season with lime juice and a few pinches garam
masala, then turn onto a platter and garnish with the sprigs of cilantro.

NOTES : Deborah cites Joe Evans for this dish that marries the rich aromas
of a curry with the speed and lightness of stirfry. The ghee is an
important flavor in this dish. Serve with Naan or pappadums.
