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:

  • Choose the right potatoes: Waxy potatoes, such as Yukon Gold or Red Bliss, hold their shape better during cooking and are less likely to fall apart. If you can only get starchy potatoes, like russet potatoes, be sure to parboil them before adding them to the dish.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: When cooking the aloo gobi, be sure to leave enough space in the pan so that the vegetables can brown evenly. If the pan is too crowded, the vegetables will steam instead of brown.
  • Spice it up: Aloo gobi is a versatile dish that can be customized to your taste. If you like it spicy, add a teaspoon or two of red chili powder or cayenne pepper. For a more mild flavor, omit the chili powder and add a pinch of garam masala.
  • Serve it with rice or roti: Aloo gobi is traditionally served with rice or roti, a type of flatbread. You can also serve it with naan or paratha.

Conclusion:

Aloo gobi is a delicious and easy-to-make 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. So next time you are looking for a quick and easy meal, give aloo gobi a try.
