Aloo Gobi is an Indian/ Pakistani dish (correct me if I am wrong) and I love it!
This recipe isn't in anyway original since I got it from Ms Nigella Lawson, and she admits to have had some fiddling with it...anyway, its great as a main dish, or you can use it to accompany other dishes, like grilled chicken or whatever you fancy.
Hope you like it and say thanks to Nigella!
Serves 3 or 4 as a small meal:
500-600g potatoes, 1 cup cauliflower florets (I couldn't find it so I had to use frozen cauliflower+broccoli - it was fine), 1 onion chopped,1 tsp mustard seeds, 1 tsp cumin seeds, 1 tsp groun coriander, 1/4 tsp turmeric, 1 tsp grated ginger, 1/4 cup water, juice of a lemon, salt & pepper to taste, 2 tsp olive oil
1. Heat enough water to cover the potatoes in a large sauce pan. Cook the potatoes until they are soft. Drain, let cool and peel. Chop them into cubes;
2. Use the remaining water to cook the cauliflower for a couple of minutes;
3. Heat the oil in a sauce pan, add mustard and cumin seeds and cook until they start to pop. Add choppped onion and cook stirring occasionaly.
4. Add cauliflower, remaining spices and water. Let it simmer for about 10 minutes (less if you are using frozen veggies). Add potatoes, stir to coat and season with salt, pepper and lemon juice.
Serve.
