Start by preparing the vegetables. Cut the cauliflower into medium-sized florets, peel the potatoes and cut them into small cubes. Finely chop the onion, tomatoes, ginger, garlic, and green chili.
Heat olive oil in a large non-stick pan over medium heat. Add the chopped onions and sautΓ© until they turn translucent, about 3-4 minutes.
Add the ginger, garlic, and green chili to the pan, and sautΓ© for another 2 minutes until the garlic turns golden.
Stir in the ground cumin, coriander, and turmeric powder. Cook the spices for 1 minute to release their aroma.
Add the chopped tomatoes to the pan, cook until they soften and the oil starts to separate, about 4-5 minutes.
Add the potato cubes and cauliflower florets to the pan, mix well with the masala, ensuring they are well-coated.
Pour in the water and sprinkle salt over the vegetables. Stir to combine and cover the pan with a lid.
Cook on low heat for 15-20 minutes until the potatoes and cauliflower are tender, stirring occasionally. If needed, add more water to prevent sticking.
Once the vegetables are cooked and there's no excess water left, sprinkle garam masala over the dish and mix well.
Garnish with chopped cilantro before serving. Enjoy your low-fat Aloo Gobhi with rice or chapati.
