INDIAN SPICED CAULIFLOWER, POTATOES AND PEAS (GOBHI MATAR RASEDA



Indian Spiced Cauliflower, Potatoes and Peas (Gobhi Matar Raseda image

This is incredibly delicious, and super healthy. This is adapted from Julie Sahni's "Classic Indian Cooking". It has less salt and oil than the original and less liquid - this dish is traditionally served like a stew, but I like it more saucy. If you prefer a soup, just add 1 more cup of water. To make this a more protein rich vegetarian meal, it's yummy with a can of chickpeas added along with the tomatoes. For the potatoes, use 1 large or 2 small potatoes. You can serve with basmati rice, bread or just inhale it directly from the bowl. This makes 4 main dish portions, or 6-8 as a side dish.

1 head cauliflower
1 large potato
3 tablespoons vegetable oil
2 teaspoons cumin seeds
1 1/2 teaspoons cumin
2 tablespoons ground coriander
1 teaspoon turmeric

1 cup canned diced tomato, with juices
2 teaspoons salt

  • Add bowl of spices and stir-fry for a few seconds to mix them in with the oil, then add in the cauliflower and potatoes. Stir the vegetables around for 5-8 minutes, until they are thoroughly coated with the seasonings and starting to sear a bit.
  • Add the tomatoes and stiry-fry another 3 minutes until the sauce starts to thicken.
  • Add salt and boiling water, stir a few times and then cover the skillet.
  • Reduce heat and simmer, covered, until vegetables are tender - about 15-25min.
