Aloo Gobi - Indian Dish Containing Potatoes and Cauliflower

Ingredients:

• 3 potatoes, medium diced
• 1 cauliflower, chopped
• 1/2 onion, sliced
• 1 tsp coriander
• 1 tsp cumin (there will be better flavor if you toast your own cumin seeds and ground them up)
• 1/2 tsp turmeric
• 1/4 tsp ground cloves
• 1/4 tsp ginger
• 1 small can diced green chiles
• 2 bay leaves
• 3 tbsp olive oil
• 1 tbsp lemon juice
• 1/3 cup water
• 3 Tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro

Method:

Boil the potatoes in water for about 15 minutes, or until just barely tender. Remove from heat and drain.

Heat the olive oil in a large skillet. Add the spices  and cook for about 30 seconds, then add the onion, and green chiles and saute.

Add cauliflower and potatoes. Allow the veggies to cook for 3 to 5 more minutes, letting the potatoes begin to brown and get crispy, then add the lemon juice and water.

Cover and cook for another 6 to 8 minutes, or until cauliflower is tender.

Before serving, top with fresh cilantro.

Try serving this with a rice pilaf and garlic naan bread!! Yum!
