A delicious cauliflower dish that’s boosted with yogurt and almond flour (ground blanched almonds), and topped with pom seeds. It’s got texture, color and literally bursts in your mouth with flavor. Serve it on a bed of tri color quinoa for a healthy meal.
Cauliflower
Tandoori Gobhi
Tandoori, the name evokes the exotic image of bright red color chicken pieces but gobhi (cauliflower) is the alternative to tandoori chicken for Veggie lovers.
I can’t believe I never shared a tandoori gobhi recipe on my blog. I eat it more often than chicken. When I read a friend’s post of how he enjoyed tandoori food on his vacation to India, I had an intense craving to make some. So I went ahead and whipped together the most simplest and easiest recipe: tandoori gobhi.
Aloo Gobhi
A quintessential Punjabi sauté of cauliflower and potatoes. It’s also the dish that became so associated with the film, ‘Bend it Like Beckham’ that (back in 2003) the DVD’s include an aloo gobhi cooking lesson from the director and her mom. This dry dish is ideal to serve as an accompaniment to meats or poultry or lentils or on its own with chapatti or paratha. And if you can save some for the next day, sandwich it between 2 pieces of bread and take it to school or office for lunch.
Besan Ki Sabzi
Besan is one of the versatile flour I know of. Its been a staple in my kitchen and I relish it in one form or another. It can be mixed into the flours for flat bread and pizza crust, used like eggs to make cheelas, as a binder for koftas, batter for deep frying, thickener for curries, base for exotic sweets, crunchy drops for flavored yogurt and many more.
Gobhi Paratha
Paratha is a popular breakfast food in North India, especially Punjabi household. I remember those days in India when I used to eat paratha every other day with malai (cream collected from boiled milk) or churned butter. Now with change in lifestyle and dietary habit I don’t eat paratha on regular basis but whenever I do, I enjoy with whipped butter.
Since paratha is usually stuffed with some kind of vegetable filing, it is best suited for the start of the day, preferably a lazy Sunday brunch, when you have no time to cook separate breakfast and lunch. It is generally served with just pickle, butter and yogurt, but it goes well with any spiced curry.Can anyone guess what curry have I served with gobhi paratha?
