   In a large wok, heat ghii and brown potatoes lightly.

   Remove the potatoes and remaining ghii/butter and set potatoes aside, reserving the ghii/butter.

4. 4

   Almost immediately they will begin to pop.

    Reduce heat and add in all other spices.

11. 11

    Cook, stirring constantly, till lightly toasted.

12. 12

    Add in cauliflower and fry a little bit, till cauliflower is to the point which it and potatoes both need the same amount of cooking time to be fully cooked.

13. 13

    [After frying the cauliflower just a bit, I add in about 1/4 C. water to keep everything from sticking/burning, but this probably wouldn't be necessary if I used non-stick cookware.]

    Add in potatoes and tomatoes, cover, and cook till done.
