Aloo Gobi ( dry potato and cauliflower curry)

Aloo Gobi

This is a proper small indian farming village dish. When I was living in my little village in India this is what we would eat with chapattis. Its cheap and easy to make. Off you go and remember to leave a comment when you finish. Nice

400gms cauliflower, cut into large florets
4 large potatoes peeled and quartered
1 small onion, chopped1 clove garlic, chopped
1/2 inch ginger, grated
1 tsp coriander powder
1 tsp cumin powder
1 tsp garam masala
1/2 tsp turmeric powder
1/2tsp chilli powder
1 tbsp oil
Fresh coriander
Salt to taste

Method

heat the oil and fry the onion, garlic and ginger.
throw in the potatoes and add all the spices apart from the garam masalas
add a 1/4 cup of water, cover the pot and cook the potatoes.
don’t add too much water but make sure there is just enough to cook the potatoes.
when the potatoes are almost cooked, add in the cauliflower.
cover the pot and cook until the cauliflowers become soft and a fork can be inserted into them easily.It’s very important to add the cauliflower when the potatoes are almost cooked or they’ll be overcooked.
add salt and sprinkle garam masala and fresh coriander to finish.

serve with my chappatis with butter on them

Nice.
