Cook time: 15 min
Total time: 20 min
Yield: 4
Cuisine: Indian
Ingredients: 2 cups diced potatoes; 2 cups cauliflower florets; 1 small tomato, cut into cubes; 1 small onion, sliced; 3 garlic pods, crushed; 2-3 small green chillies, slit in halves (optional- I didn’t use them); ½ tsp cumin seeds; ½ tsp ground turmeric; 3 tsp ground coriander; ½ tsp chilly powder; 1 tsp garam masala; 2 tbsp oil; Salt to taste; Coriander leaves, to garnish; Steamed rice or roti, to serve

Indian potatoes and cauliflower a.k.a Aloo gobi.

Cubes of potatoes and cauliflower florets coated in spices, accentuated by a sprinkle of garam masala.

It’s always my first choice for dinner on a super busy day. It’s quick, easy, and very healthy. Moreover, perfect when I want to cook simple meals for the family. With just a few basic ingredients from the pantry, you can cook a hearty vegetarian dish really quickly.

This recipe is actually a stir fried version of my favourite, Cauliflower and Potato Curry. In my opinion, both the recipes are delicious and mouthwatering.

I served aloo gobi with steamed rice, mango pickle, and pappadums. If you prefer a non vegetarian twist, try fried fish.
