Equipment
- Wok or karahi
Ingredients
- 1 teaspoon avocado oil (or any oil or choice)
- 1 teaspoon cumin seeds
- 1 onion (finely chopped)
- 1 heaping tbsp ginger garlic paste
- 2 teaspoon ground coriander
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon cayenne (use more or less according to your preference for heat).
- 1 teaspoon garam masala (taste the sabzi once it's cooked and add more if needed at the time)
- ½ teaspoon turmeric
- 1½ cups tomato puree (canned or from approximately 4 tomatoes, blended).
- 1 tablespoon kasoori methi (crushed between the palms of your hands)
- 1 medium head cauliflower (separated into small florets)
- 2 tablespoon cilantro (chopped)
- Salt to taste
Instructions
- Heat oil in a wok or skillet. Add the cumin seeds and saute until they darken slightly, a minute or so. Add the onions, saute until they begin to brown, then add the ginger garlic paste.
- Saute the ginger garlic paste for a minute, then add in the spices: turmeric, cayenne, ground cumin, ground coriander and garam masala. Mix well to coat the onions with the spices.
- Add the pureed tomatoes and mix well. Cook the tomatoes five minutes, stirring occasionally, until they darken slightly.
- Add the kasoori methi, crushed between the palms of your hands, to the tomato puree. Mix it in.
- Stir in the cauliflower florets and add salt to taste. Mix well, cover and cook over medium-low heat until the cauliflower is tender. Stir occasionally to make sure nothing is sticking to the pan.
- Once the cauliflower is tender, check and add more salt if needed. Stir in the cilantro and serve the gobi sabzi hot.
