Im going to have a go at making it myself , has anyone made it before? i have the ingredients all ready to go but im not too sure how much of the spices to put in and in which order can anyone help?

i would be cooking the spices first before cooking potato and curry to make sure spices are cooked first. Perhaps look online for a recipe?

Yup cook the spices first, and parboil the potato too.I just generally do 1tsp each of tumeric, garam marsala, cumin, ground coriander.Also around 1/4tsp chilli, can do less or omit it if you like.

The usual cubed potato, chopped onion, cauliflower, green beans, etc.A cup of vegetable stock.

I don't know if it's the actual recipe, but it tastes nice anyway haha.

Aloo gobi
2 T oil
1 onion, finely chopped
4cm fresh ginger, grated
1 t mustard seeds
5 curry leaves
½ t ground turmeric
½ t ground fenugreek
2 green chillies, left whole
½ t chilli powder
½ t salt
3 potatoes, peeled and cut into cubes
250g tomatoes, chopped
½ small cauliflower
1 t lemon juice
½ t sugar

1. Heat the ghee or vegetable oil in a saucepan over a medium heat.
When hot, add the onions and fry for 2-3 minutes, or until softened.
2. Add the ginger, mustard seeds, curry leaves, ground turmeric,
ground fenugreek, whole green chillies, chilli powder and salt. Stir the
mixture well and cook for two minutes, or until the seeds start to pop
and the spices smell fragrant.
3. Add the potatoes and stir well, then add the tomatoes, cauliflower,
lemon juice, sugar and water and bring the mixture to the boil.
Reduce the heat and simmer the mixture for 25-30 minutes, or until
the potatoes have cooked through and the mixture has thickened
This is my fav cauliflower recipe, compliments of the BBC’s Hairy Bikers, and I don’t even like cauli much!
