Aloo Gobi

I am not a big fan of cauliflower but this recipe could make anybody eat it! It is spicy and full of flavours. You can have it as a side dish with a spicy main or on its own with a nice slice of bread.

Serves 4:

600g potatoes, diced
1 cauliflower, cut into small florets
2 TBSP groundnut oil
1 TBSP cumin seeds
2-3 green chillies, chopped
1 tsp ground cumin
1 tsp ground coriander
1/2 tsp turmeric
1/2 chilli powder
1 TBSP fresh coriander/parsley

1. Parboil the potatoes and cauliflower for 10min. Drain well.

2. Fry the cumin seeds into the oil and when they start 'popping', add the chillies and cook for a few minutes, then add the potatoes, cauliflower and spices. Fry for 5-10 minutes until the vegetables are tender.

3. Sprinkle with fresh coriander/parsley: it is ready! Serve piping hot.
