Ingredients needed to make Easy Turmeric Cauliflower – Kashmiri Gobi

1 medium cauliflower head, ghee or oil of choice, cumin seeds, 2 whole dried red chili peppers, ground turmeric, ground ginger, salt, water and green chilies.

METHOD –

Prep –


Firstly, lets chop the cauliflower. Remove all large leaves from the base of the cauliflower and discard the leaves. Further with a paring knife, cut around the stem of the cauliflower. Furthermore break the cauliflower into large florets with your fingers. Keep the medium sized florets and cutting the cauliflower into smaller florets for those that are very large. Finally rinse the cauliflower florets and dab with a paper towel.

First in a heavy bottom pot on medium heat, add ghee or oil. Second, add on whole dried red chili peppers and cumin seeds. Third, when the cumin seeds splutter add in cauliflower. Stir well so that the ghee/oil coats the florets. 

Further, add in ground turmeric, ground ginger, ground cumin, and salt. Mix well. Let it sauté for 3 to 4 minutes. Then add in 2 slit green chilies, but still intact and 1/4 cup water, mix well and cover until the cauliflower is cooked. We like a bite to this dish so don’t cook until mushy. It was done in under 10 minutes. How long you cook is totally your choice. Check every 5 minutes to see if done, make sure its not soggy. When done garnish with 2 whole green chilies.

Transfer to a serving bowl and enjoy as a side with roti or rice.
