Serves 4This recipe will yield an incredibly delicious, but rather dry dish. If you would like to make this dish more like a curry, add a little water and some chopped tomato (about 1 roma tomato would be just fine). Aloo Gobi is delicious served with naan or rotis, and makes an excellent side dish!
Ingredients: - 1 small head of cauliflower (or 1/2 regular-sized)- cut into small pieces
- 2 medium sized potatoes- peeled and diced
- 2 tbsp. oil
- 2 jalapenos- seeded and diced (leave the seeds in for extra heat)
- thai or serano chilies- leave whole, but slice 2 or 3 slits in the chili (optional)
- 1 tbsp. ginger paste
- 1 tbsp. garlic paste
- 1/2 tsp. black mustard seeds
- 1/2 tsp. cumin seeds

- 1/4 corriander (cilantro)- chopped, extra to garnish
Directions: - Prepare all vegetables and keep them near. Heat 2 tbsp. oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add the mustard seeds and cumin seeds.
- Once the seeds begin to pop and crackle, add the cauliflower, potatoes, chilies, ginger, garlic, turmeric, cumin and garam masala. Stir everything to combine.
- Continue to stir/fry for about 10-15 minutes, until the cauliflower and potatoes are cooked to your liking.
