ALICIA'S ALOO GOBI

This is hands down the easiest and most delicious curry I have ever made. It's my own personal twist on Aloo Gobi, a traditionally dry Indian dish consisting of potatoes and cauliflower. The coconut milk adds the extra sauciness; my favorite part of curry. Serve with basmati rice or, better, with breads such as roti, naan, or pita.

Time 1h

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 17

1 head cauliflower, cut into small florets
1/4 cup peanut or vegetable oil
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon ground coriander
Kosher salt
1 medium onion, thinly sliced
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 small fresh red chile, seeded (if desired) and minced
1 tablespoon grated fresh ginger
1 teaspoon cumin seed
2 potatoes, coarsely chopped (about 1 1/2 pounds)
2 tomatoes, roughly chopped (about 1 pound)
1 teaspoon garam masala
1/2 teaspoon ground turmeric
1 cup frozen peas, thawed
1/2 cup loosely packed cilantro leaves
1 to 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
  • Put the cauliflower on a baking sheet and toss with 2 tablespoons of the oil, the ground cumin, coriander and 2 teaspoons salt. Roast until soft and lightly browned, about 20 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, heat the remaining 2 tablespoons oil in a medium Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until lightly browned, about 10 minutes. Add the garlic, chile, ginger and cumin seed, and cook until fragrant, stirring, about 1 minute (add a splash of water if the ingredients begin to stick). Add the potatoes, tomatoes, garam masala, turmeric and 2 teaspoons salt and cook, covered, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking, until the potatoes are tender, about 20 minutes.
  • Stir in the cauliflower and peas and cook until heated through, about 2 minutes. Stir in the cilantro and lemon juice. Serve.

Tips:

  • Use the right potatoes. Waxy potatoes, such as Yukon Gold or baby potatoes, hold their shape better than starchy potatoes, such as russets, and are less likely to fall apart during cooking.
  • Cut the potatoes and cauliflower into uniform pieces. This will help them cook evenly.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan. If you overcrowd the pan, the vegetables will steam instead of fry and they won't get crispy.
  • Use a well-seasoned cast iron skillet. A well-seasoned cast iron skillet will help the vegetables to brown evenly and develop a nice crust.
  • Don't stir the vegetables too much. Stirring the vegetables too much will prevent them from getting crispy.
  • Season the vegetables to taste. Add salt, pepper, and other spices to taste.
  • Serve the aloo gobi hot. Aloo gobi is best served hot, straight from the pan.

Conclusion:

Aloo gobi is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. It is a great way to use up leftover potatoes and cauliflower, and it is also a good source of vitamins and minerals. Aloo gobi can be served as a main course or a side dish, and it is also a popular street food in India.
