Aloo Gobi

  Aloo Gobi

 

Aloo Gobi is one of the most simple and tasty Indian dishes. In English, gobi means cauliflower and aloo means potato. The recipe I'm sharing is a home style simple, easy to make, flavor packed and healthy dish. You can serve with paratha or roti.

There are many ways to make aloo gobi, but I'm sharing a very quick and simple recipe with some basic spices. I will say this dish truly captures the essence of Indian home cooking. It is the most popular among Indian vegetable dishes. While the homestyle Punjabi aloo gobi recipe is comforting.

One of the common complaints about this aloo gobi dish is that gobi florets either turn mushy or bland. With my recipe, you will have perfectly cooked gobi seasonings seeped in, and not mushy at all.

This is a super easy aloo gobi recipe where you don't have to cook the potatoes beforehand or do any heavy prep work.

Cauliflower is very healthy to eat because it is rich in fiber. It is high in vitamin C and K. It has anti-inflammatory properties. It protects our skin from sun damage and improves collagen production, which keeps skin smooth and shiny. It also prevents diabetes. And we all know, about potatoes that decreases the risk of heart disease. It is high in potassium, an, electrolyte that aids in the working of our heart, muscles and nervous system.

 This is the must try dish even anyone can make, It's super easy and tasty recipe.
