Ingredients
  

  • 300 g Potato (cut into cubes)
  • 700 g Cauliflower (cut into medium size florets)
  • 1 bowl Green Peas (small bowl)
  • 2 tbsp Onion-Ginger-Garlic Paste (prepared with 1 onion, ½-inch ginger and 10-12 garlic cloves)
  • 1 piece Tomato (large)
  • 1 piece Onion (sliced)
  • 1 tbsp Turmeric Powder
  • 1 tbsp Red Chili Powder
  • 1 tbsp Kashmiri Red Chili Powder

  • 1 piece Bay Leaf
  • 2 pieces Cinnamon Sticks
  • 4 pieces Cardamoms
  • 1 tbsp Cumin Seeds
  • 1 tbsp Ghee
  • 3 tbsp Mustard Oil
  • Salt to Taste

Instructions
 

  • Heat the pan.
  • Add water. After it comes to a boil, add florets and ½ tablespoon of salt. Cover the pan with a lid. Boil for 5 minutes.
  • Take the florets out of the water.
  • Take another pan and heat it. Pour mustard oil into it.
  • Add potato cubes. Add salt and turmeric powder. Fry the potatoes until they turn golden. Take them out on a plate.
  • Add more oil. Add whole spices – dry chillies, bay leaf, cumin seeds, cinnamon sticks and cardamom to the hot oil. When they smell, add onion and fry until golden brown.
  • Add onion-ginger-garlic paste. Fry well until the raw smell completely goes away.

  • Add fried potato cubes and give them a good stir.
  • Add chopped tomatoes. Mix well.
  • Add the florets and sprinkle some salt. Mix the masala, potatoes and florets gently so that spices coat the vegetables. Sprinkle ¼ tablespoon of garam masala.

Notes

  • Choose fresh cauliflower and potatoes , wash thoroughly and cut evenly.
  • Alter the amount of spice if you want according to your liking. Sauté them in oil to golden brown for additional flavor.
  • I cook the dish on a low to medium flame to maintain a consistent temperature. This will facilitate even cooking.
  • Since peas cook pretty quickly, add them in the end to ensure even cooking of all the ingredients and prevent any of them from becoming mushy to affect the eventual texture of the aloo gobi matar.
