Serves: 4
Ingredients:
- 100g Western Star butter
- 1 onion, diced
- 1 clove garlic, crushed
- 1 teaspoon finely grated fresh ginger

Method:
Melt butter in a large frypan or casserole with a lid. Add onion, garlic, ginger and spices, cook 1-2 minutes until fragrant and onions are golden.
Add potatoes, 1 cup water and season to taste, stir to coat, cover and simmer for 10 minutes. Remove the lid and stir in cauliflower and chilli, cook for a further 10 minutes, until cauliflower and potatoes are tender and glossy. There should only be just enough liquid to moisten the vegetables.
