Cooking approach and texture
The technique here centres on step-by-step home cooking. Cook aromatics first where included, then add vegetables in an order that lets each reach a pleasant texture. Avoid overcooking so colour and bite remain inviting.
One useful cue from the method is to in a pan, heat oil and add cumin seeds. When the cumin browns and becomes aromatic, put in the ginger and onions and saute until onions turn pinkish brown. Continue through the remaining steps in order so the ingredients come together with a more consistent finish.
