Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Cauliflower florets
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Cumin seeds
- 1 medium Onion, finely chopped
- 1 tablespoon Ginger garlic paste
- 1 small Green chili, chopped
- 2 medium Tomatoes, finely chopped
- 1 teaspoon Coriander powder
- 1 teaspoon Cumin powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Red chili powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Turmeric powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Garam masala
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1 cup Water
- 2 tablespoons Fresh coriander leaves, chopped
Instructions
Begin by preparing the cauliflower. Cut the cauliflower into small florets and wash them thoroughly under running water. Drain and set aside.
Heat olive oil in a large pan over medium heat. Add cumin seeds and let them sizzle for a few seconds until fragrant.
Add the finely chopped onion to the pan and sauté until they turn translucent, about 4-5 minutes.
Add the ginger garlic paste and chopped green chili to the pan. Stir continuously and cook for another 1-2 minutes until the raw aroma disappears.
Stir in the finely chopped tomatoes and cook until they are soft and the oil begins to separate, about 5 minutes.
Reduce the heat to low and add coriander powder, cumin powder, red chili powder, turmeric powder, and salt. Mix well and cook for 1-2 minutes until the spices are well incorporated.
Add the cauliflower florets to the pan and toss them until coated with the spice mixture.
Pour in the water, stir well, and cover the pan with a lid. Let the cauliflower cook for about 10-12 minutes or until tender. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
Once the cauliflower is cooked, uncover the pan and add garam masala. Stir and simmer for an additional 2-3 minutes to blend the flavors.
Turn off the heat and garnish with freshly chopped coriander leaves.
Serve the Low Carb Chole Ki Sabji hot with a side of raita or salad for a low-carb meal.
