A favourite Keralan recipe from ” Thali” by Maunika Gowardhan.
Ingredients
- 3 tbsps vegetable oil
- 2 tsps mustard seeds
- 12-15 fresh curry leaves
- 5 cm cm ginger root peeled and finely chopped
- 650 g cauliflower florets
- 150 ml water
- salt to taste
- 280 g potatoes cubed and boiled
- 1/2 tsp coarsely ground black pepper
- 2 tbsp finely chopped coriander
Servings:
Instructions
- Heat the oil in a heavy based saucepan over a medium heat then add the mustard seeds and let them sputter for 5 seconds. Add half the curry leaves and the ginger and fry for 20 seconds.
- Add the cauliflower and fry for 4 minutes, then add the water and season to taste. Cover, reduce the heat and cook for 12 minutes, stirring halfway through to make sure it is not sticking to the bottom of the pan.
- Add the pre boiled potatoes and the black pepper and simmer for a further 4-5 minutes, uncovered, until the cauliflower is cooked, stirring often. Most of the water should have evaporated.
- Turn off the heat and add the remaining curry leaves and the fresh coriander. Serve warm with chappatis and dal.
