Ingredients:
- 1 small cauliflower
- 1 onion
- 2-4 potatoes
- 2 small tomatoes
- 3-4 cloves garlic
- handful of cilantro
- 2 inches of ginger
- 1 tbsp. curry powder
- 1/2 tsp. cumin
- 1/2 tsp. cumin seeds
- 1/2 tsp. turmeric
- 1/2 tsp. coriander
- 1/2 tsp. chili powder
- salt to taste
- 1/2 cup water or veggie/chicken stock
- jalapeno or other spicy pepper
Directions:
- Start be removing the stem from the cauliflower, then chop it into small pieces. Do the same with the potatoes (skin on), onion and tomatoes. Mince the garlic, ginger and jalapeno (optional). Grab a large pan and heat up a tablespoon of oil over medium heat.
- Dump the onions and pepper into the pan first, cooking until soft. Next, add the garlic and ginger and cook that until you can smell them. Finally, throw in the spices, a good pinch of salt, and stir the mixture around until everything is coated evenly.
- Now it’s time to add the potatoes, cauliflower and tomato to the pan. Stir everything around well. Once everything is coated, add the 1 1/2 cups of water (or stock) and stir. Cover the pan, drop the heat down to a simmer and let it all cook for 15 minutes.
- After the 15 minutes are up, taste the curry. Add more curry powder and salt if needed. If the curry isn’t spicy enough, add more chili powder or cayenne. If you want it to be more acidic, throw in coriander. If it’s too sweet, add turmeric. Once it tastes right, cover the pan and let it simmer for another 15 minutes.
- Serve your aloo gobi over a bowl of rice and with a side of naan. Garnish with some chopped cilantro!
