Aloo Gobi

Description:

                Combination of Potatoes and cauliflower with some spices tastes amazing. Here goes the recipe

Ingredients:
1. Potatoes - 3 to 4
2. Cauliflower - 1
3. Onion - 1
4. Tomato/tomato puree
5. Whole cumin
6. Chilli powder
7. Garam masala 
8. Ginger and garlic paste
9. Turmeric powder
10. Coriander leaves to garnish
12. Amchur powder(optional)
11. Salt to taste

Procedure:

               First separate the cauliflower florets and put them in hot water for 5 mnts with Turmeric powder. Next take the potatoes and cut it into cube sizes. Chop the Onion into small pieces. Take a skillet/wok and pour oil in it. Once the oil becomes hot add the whole cumin to splutter. Next add the onions and saute them. Then add the chopped tomatoes/tomato puree and ginger/garlic paste. Cook for sometime with the lids closed. When the excess water is evaporated from the gravy add the garam masala and chilli powder. After this add the potatoes, and stir properly. We can add little water also, so that it helps the potatoes to cook fast. When the potatoes are half cooked, add the cauliflower  and cook on medium flame. Check for salt and add if required. If there is moist in the dish then, take off the lid and allow all the excess moist to disappear. You can  add Amchur powder to this dish, if you want more sourness.The dish tastes good if its made dry. Aloo Gobi is ready to be served with Rotis, Nan`s, rice etc. Before serving garnish it with coriander leaves.
