Chola Gobi [Quick Chickpea And Cauliflower Curry]
Added: 12th Oct, 2006 | Viewed 1438 times | |
"Chola Gobi" is an interesting twist to the more traditional and world famous "Aloo Gobi". This is an extremely fast recipe that I devised when I was pressed for time and now use it wisely on a short notice. I just make sure that I have all the ingredients handy at all times, and I can have this ready in under 20 minutes when I need a miracle.
 
Prep & Cooking Time: 30 mins
Serves 4
  Vegetarian  From My Recipe Book
Ingredients
   1 can chickpeas, rinsed and drained
   2 cups cauliflower florets
   2 tomatoes, diced
   1 onion, finely chopped
   2 garlic cloves, crushed
   2 green chillies, finely chopped
   2-3 bay leaves
   1/2 tsp turmeric powder
   1 tsp red chilli powder
   1 tsp coriander powder
   1 tsp garam masala
   salt to taste
   2 tbsp oil
   1/2 cup freshly chopped coriander leaves
Method
Heat oil in a deep frying pan over medium heat. Add the bay leaves, garlic, onions and tomatoes. Cook for 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add all the spices, chickpeas and cauliflower. Stir well to combine. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover with a vented lid and let simmer for 15-20 minutes. Garnish with coriander leaves and serve with parathas or naan.
Gel's Notes
  • I like to add 1 tsp of sugar and garnish it with chopped mint leaves. I also try to substitute the garam masala with "chole masala" whenever I can.
