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.

This dish was a bit too spicy for my taste, but I still enjoyed it. I would recommend using less chili powder if you don't like spicy food.

This aloo gobi recipe is a keeper! The flavors are amazing, and the dish is so easy to make. I used a combination of russet and Yukon Gold potatoes, and they cooked perfectly. The cauliflower was also tender and flavorful. I served this with rice and
