Tofu Aloo Gobi Recipes

ALOO GOBI

Steps:

• Heat 2 tablespoons of oil over medium-high heat in a large pot. Fry cumin seeds for a few seconds until they turn golden brown and begin to pop. Reduce heat to medium, stir in the onion, and cook until lightly browned. Stir in serrano pepper and ginger; fry for 1 minute. Season with coriander, paprika, turmeric, cayenne, and garam masala; cook for 30 seconds until fragrant.
• Stir potatoes and salt into the pot, cover, and cook for 5 to 7 minutes. Add cauliflower, cover, and cook until cauliflower steams in its own juices until tender, about 20 minutes. Stir in lemon juice. Pour remaining 1 tablespoon of oil around the edges of the pot. Increase heat to medium-high and fry for 3 to 5 minutes to brown, stirring gently to avoid mashing the cauliflower.

SHEET PAN ALOO GOBI

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Mix oil, curry powder, and salt together in a small bowl.
• Combine potatoes and carrots in a large bowl; pour 2/3 of the curry sauce on top. Mix to combine. Spread on a large, rimmed baking sheet.
• Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes. Mix cauliflower with remaining curry sauce. Add to the baking sheet and continue baking for 20 minutes. Add peas; bake for 10 minutes more. Garnish with cilantro.

• menu suggestions
• My favorite partner for this is Lentils with Greens and Sun-Dried Tomatoes (page 111). Something fruity makes a nice counterpoint to the strong flavors of the meal-a platter of orange slices with chunks of pineapple and/or mango, for example. Or, if you have more time and want to make another easy dish, try Fruitful Red Slaw (page 177).
• If you have a little more time and are accommodating larger appetites, Curried Chickpeas with Chutney Bulgur (page 98) makes a filling companion dish. Serve with a cooling salad of diced tomatoes and cucumbers (with chopped cilantro, if you'd like), dressed in a creamy vegan dressing.
