Chop the whole onion (about 1 cup).

Saute' the onion until it begins to brown and soften.

Meanwhile, mince the garlic and grate the ginger, and add to the onion as it cooks.

Trim the whole cauliflower, and cut the head into bite-size pieces.

Scrub the potatoes, and cut into julienne strips.

Stir the coriander, fennel, cumin, turmeric and hot red pepper into the onion mixture, and cook for 30 seconds.

Add the cauliflower, potatoes, water and tomato puree. Reduce the heat to a simmer; cover, and continue to cook until the vegetables are tender, about 5 minutes.

A minute before the cauliflower and potatoes are done, stir in the peas, salt and pepper. Cover, and cook another minute or so.
