Ingredients for Aloo Gobi Potato And Cauliflower Curry

  • 1 lb potatoes, peeled and cut into 2-inch squares
  • 1 medium head cauliflower, cut into small florets
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil (or ghee)
  • Black Mustard Seeds
  • Cumin Seed
  • 1/2 teaspoon fenugreek seeds
  • Dried Red Chili
  • 1 large onion, finely chopped
  • Fresh Green Chile
  • Ground Turmeric
  • Ground Cumin
  • Ground Coriander
  • Salt to taste
  • Fresh Coriander

How to Make Aloo Gobi Potato And Cauliflower Curry

  1. Boil the potatoes in their skins for 15-20 minutes, or until tender. Allow to cool completely, then peel and cut into 2-inch squares.
  2. Blanch the cauliflower florets in boiling water for 2 minutes. Immediately transfer to an ice bath to stop the cooking process. This helps retain its vibrant color and crisp texture.
  3. Heat the oil in a wide, deep pan or skillet over medium heat.
  4. Add the mustard seeds and cook until they begin to pop (about 1 minute).
  5. Add the cumin and fenugreek seeds, and cook for another 30 seconds until fragrant.
  6. Add the red chilies, onion, and green chilies. Sauté for 8-10 minutes, until the onions are golden brown.
  7. Reduce the heat to low. Add the cauliflower and cook for 6-8 minutes, covered, stirring occasionally.
  8. Add the potatoes, turmeric, coriander, garam masala, and salt. Stir gently to combine.
  9. Cover the pan and cook for another 6-8 minutes, or until the potatoes are heated through and the flavors have melded.
  10. Stir in the fresh coriander leaves and remove from the heat. Serve hot or cold as a delicious side dish.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Elevate your dish with simple flavor boosters! A final flourish of freshly chopped herbs can add incredible brightness, while a squeeze of lemon or lime juice right before serving can awaken all the flavors. Don't underestimate a sprinkle of quality finishing salt or a drizzle of good olive oil to make your creation shine.
