Aloo Gobhi is one of the stir fry you can cook when you are bored of the usual cooking. It pairs well with any Indian flat bread as chapathi or phulka.
Aloo Gobhi is a vegan, easy to cook, good lunch option. You can also pack it in the lunch box.
Potato and cauliflower is a match made in heaven. Aloo Gobhi Sabzi is tasty and a good menu for the weekend. Pair it with roti, nan, chapathi or phulka smeared with some ghee.
Potato, the peace maker :
Among all the vegetables, I find potato to be the friendliest one. It blends well with most vegetables, you can use it with peas to make Aloo Matar or put a few fried pieces of potato in spinach gravy to make Alu Palak. Not to mention, I used to put a few boiled cubes of potato in chana masala earlier.This potato cauliflower stir fry of northern style is tasty as I have shallow fried the potato pieces. Do you know, adding a cube of boiled potato helps in removing the excess salt from the gravy ?
