Peel and cut the kumala into chunks.
Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
Add the kumala chunks and cook, stirring occasionally, until they start to brown, about 10 minutes.
Stir in the ground cumin, ground coriander, turmeric powder, and paprika. Cook for another 5 minutes, or until the kumala is tender and coated with the spices.
Season with salt and black pepper to taste.
Garnish with chopped fresh cilantro before serving.
Enjoy your meal!
