This is a one pot, super simple, comforting dish that's ready in under 30 minutes and its full of flavour.
This recipe can be made in several ways; with only onions or only tomatoes or use no onion-tomato at all. it depends on what ingredients are available. Though I am not a big fan of tomatoes, this recipe has tomatoes, along with onions, ginger, garlic and spices! The only ingredients missing is cilantro which I substituted with parsley flakes for the garnish.

Usually, the cauliflower is blanched before cooking in the spices. This time I fried the florets and the potatoes and then added to the onion-tomato base along with the spices. If you do not want to fry the vegetables, then just add a cup of water for simmering. I used pureed tomato but you can use chopped and cook till soft and mushy.

Since I don’t eat aloo gobi (Spiced Potatoes & Cauliflower) I had to rely on husband to the honours of giving it a thumbs up or down. And he said, “This is genuinely one of the best aloo gobi you have ever made!” That’s definitely a thumbs up!
