Time 40m

Number Of Ingredients 18

3 tablespoons ghee (or sub coconut oil or peanut oil- but ghee tastes best!)
1 shallot, chopped
4 cloves garlic, chopped
1 teaspoon fresh ginger, finely chopped
1 serrano chile, split down the middle, stem intact
8-10 curry leaves (optional)
2 teaspoon whole cumin seeds
1 teaspoon black mustard seeds
1/2 teaspoon ground turmeric
1/2 teaspoon paprika ( or chili powder)
1/2 teaspoon asafoetida
1 teaspoons ground coriander
1 medium tomato, finely diced, with juices
3/4 cup water
1 teaspoon salt
2 cups diced potatoes ( 3/4 inch dice)
1 small head cauliflower, cut into small bite-sized florets (about 5 cups)
Garnish: Cilantro or scallions

Steps:

  • Heat ghee in a large skillet over medium heat. Add shallot, garlic, ginger and serrano chili and saute until fragrant and golden, about 3-4 minutes. Add curry leaves, cumin seeds and mustard seeds and saute 1-2 minutes.
  • Lower heat and add remaining spices - turmeric, paprika, asafoetida, coriander- along with tomato with its juices. Cook the tomatoes down on low heat for about 4-5 minutes until they begin to break down.
  • Add salt and water, give a good stir scraping up any browned bits.
  • Add potatoes and cauliflower, toss to coat. Cover, bring to a gentle simmer over med-low heat and cook, covered until fork-tender, about 15 minutes. Uncover and reduce, until all the remaining liquid is gone, stirring occasionally. You want this fairly dry ( the ghee will keep it moist).
  • Spoon into a serving dish, scraping all the goodness out of the bottom of the pan over top.
  • Garnish with cilantro sprigs. Serve with naan, basmati rice or roti!

Indian Potatoes and Cauliflower (Aloo Gobi) image

A daily household dish in India, made in every house and cherished by each and every person. This authentic dish is made with tomatoes and onions flavored with the aromas of the Indian spices. This is cherished with phulka (roti, Indian wheat bread). There are various versions of aloo gobi, this is my take on it. Please do try this recipe and comment. Garnish with coriander leaves and serve with a lemon wedge. Serve with hot phulka or chapati or rice and curds.

Provided by Food Network

Categories     side-dish

Time 40m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

Peanut or canola oil, for shallow frying
1 pound boiling potatoes, peeled and cut into thick 2 by 1 by 1-inch fries
1 head cauliflower (1 3/4 pounds), cut into delicate florets
1 tablespoon peeled finely chopped fresh ginger
1/4 teaspoon ground turmeric
3/4 to 1 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon cayenne
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon ground coriander
3 tablespoons water
2 to 3 tablespoons coarsely chopped cilantro leaves

Steps:

  • Put the oil in a large frying pan and set over medium heat. When it is hot, put in the potatoes and fry them until they are golden and almost tender, about 10 minutes. Lift the potatoes out with a slotted spoon, and drain on paper towels. Turn the heat to medium-high, put in the cauliflower florets, and fry for 3 to 4 minutes, until they are golden brown. Lift the cauliflower out with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels. Turn the heat off. Remove all the oil from the frying pan except for 2 tablespoons (the extra oil can be drained and reused). Turn the heat to medium-high and put in the ginger. Stir for 10 seconds. Now return the potatoes and cauliflower to the pan. Turn the heat down to medium. Put in the turmeric, salt, cayenne, cumin, and coriander. Stir gently to coat the vegetables with the spices. Add 3 tablespoons of water. Stir once and cover the pan. Turn the heat down to low and cook very gently for 4 minutes. Add the cilantro and toss gently. Serve hot.

Tips:

  • Use fresh and firm cauliflower and potatoes: This will ensure that the vegetables retain their shape and texture during cooking.
  • Cut the cauliflower and potatoes into even-sized florets: This will help them cook evenly.
  • Do not overcrowd the pan when frying the vegetables: This will prevent them from steaming instead of frying.
  • Use a large skillet or wok to cook the dish: This will allow the vegetables to spread out and cook evenly.
  • Stir the vegetables frequently while cooking: This will prevent them from burning.
  • Add the spices and herbs to the dish towards the end of cooking: This will help to preserve their flavor.
  • Serve the dish hot: This is when it will be at its best.

Conclusion:

Gobi aloo is a delicious and easy-to-make Indian dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. It is a great way to get your daily dose of vegetables, and it is also a good source of protein and fiber.
