Aloo Gobi

Ingredients

* 2 T vegetable oil
* 1/2 large onion, peeled and cut into small pieces
* 1/2 bunch fresh coriander, separated into stalks and leaves and roughly chopped
* 1/2 teaspoon chili powder
* 1/2 large cauliflower, leaves removed and cut evenly into eighths
* 1 1/2 large potatoes, peeled and cut into even pieces
* 1 can diced tomato
* 1/2 t ginger
* 2 cloves crushed garlic
* 1/2 teaspoon cumin powder
* 1 teaspoon turmeric
* 1/2 teaspoon salt
* 1 teaspoon garam masala

Directions


Heat vegetable oil in a large saucepan.
Add the chopped onion and one teaspoon of cumin powder to the oil.
Stir together and cook until onions become creamy, golden, and translucent.
Add chopped coriander, turmeric, chilli powder, salt, tomatoes, ginger, and garlic. Mix.
Add potatoes and cauliflower to the sauce plus a few tablespoons of water (ensuring that the mixture doesn't stick to the saucepan).
Ensure that the potatoes and cauliflower are coated with the curry sauce.
Cover and allow to simmer for twenty minutes (or until potatoes are cooked).
Add two teaspoons of Garam Masala and stir.
Turn off the heat, cover, and leave for as long as possible before serving.
