Gobhi Aloo is a favorite dish of almost every house hold. This popular combination can be cooked in various ways. I have made Gobhi Aloo Raseela by roasting the vegetables before adding to the cooked masala. A small pinch of cardamom added to the dish elevates its flavor.
This Aloo Gobi gravy has a lovely taste and is similar to the Aloo Gobhi which is made in Punjabi Dhabas (roadside / highway eatery joints). Though there are many variations, this is a delicious dhaba-style version. It is a simple yet tasty Potato Cauliflower curry aka Aloo Gobhi Raseela.
