For 4 servings
Make the tempering: Heat oil in a wide pan or kadai over medium heat. Add cumin seeds and let them splutter for about 30 seconds. Add hing, grated ginger, and green chilies. Sauté for another 30 seconds until fragrant.
Cook the tomato masala: Add the chopped tomatoes to the pan. Stir in the turmeric powder, red chili powder, and coriander powder. Cook for 4-5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the tomatoes soften and the oil begins to separate from the masala.
Add the vegetables: Add the cauliflower florets and cubed raw banana to the pan. Sprinkle with salt and mix well to coat the vegetables evenly with the masala.
Cook the sabzi: Cover the pan with a lid and reduce the heat to low. Let it cook for 15-18 minutes, stirring gently every few minutes to prevent sticking. Cook until the raw banana is fork-tender and the cauliflower is cooked but still holds its shape.
Finish and garnish: Uncover the pan and sprinkle the garam masala over the vegetables. Mix gently and cook for one more minute. Garnish with fresh coriander leaves and serve hot.

Omit the green chilies and reduce the red chili powder to 1/4 teaspoon for a much milder version.
