How to Make Aloo Gobi Mattar

- Turn heat down to medium and sauté for 3-5 minutes, stirring frequently.
- Add 1 cup vegetable stock, cover the pan, lower the heat to medium-low, and simmer for about 15 minutes.
- Add 1 medium head cauliflower (cut into florets), and 1 tablespoon lemon juice.
- Stir well, cover, and simmer for another 10 minutes. If the ingredients are sticking, add a little more stock or 1/4 cup of water.
- Add 1 cup frozen peas to the pan and stir.
- Cover and simmer for 10 minutes.
- Turn off the heat. Stir in 1/2 cup fresh cilantro (chopped).
- Cover and let rest for 10 minutes before adjusting salt to taste.
