Lazy-Day Aloo Gobi (Just Mix and Cook)
Lazy-Day Aloo Gobi is a quick and effortless Aloo Gobi where everything is mixed in one pot and cooked on low heat. No frying, no extra steps. Just a simple, homestyle dish ready in minimal time.
Ingredients
- 2 medium potatoes peeled and cubed
- 2 cups cauliflower florets
- 1 medium onion roughly chopped
- 1 medium tomato chopped
- 1 teaspoon ginger crushed
- 1 teaspoon garlic crushed
- 1 green chilli slit
- ½ teaspoon turmeric powder
- 1 teaspoon red chilli powder adjust as needed
- 1 teaspoon coriander powder
- ½ teaspoon garam masala
- Salt to taste
- 2 tablespoons oil
- Fresh coriander for garnish
Instructions
- Add the potatoes, cauliflower, onion, tomato, ginger, garlic and green chilli to a kadhai.
- Sprinkle turmeric, red chilli powder, coriander powder, garam masala and salt.
- Drizzle oil and mix everything well so the vegetables are coated evenly.
- Cover and cook on low heat. The vegetables will release moisture and begin to soften.
- Open the lid once or twice and give a gentle mix.
- Cook until the potatoes and cauliflower turn soft and the masala blends well.
- Finish with chopped coriander and serve warm.
Notes
- Slow cooking on low heat gives the best texture.
- Extra water is usually not needed. If your cauliflower is dry, add one or two spoons.
- Keep it covered through the cooking process so the steam helps cook the vegetables.
- Add lemon juice or crushed kasuri methi at the end to brighten the flavour.
