Aloo Gobi, Pakistani Cauliflower dish (V)

A woman in my book group is from Pakistan and when she hosts, she cooks wonderful Pakistani dishes. I especially enjoyed her Aloo Gobi. Here is her recipe:

 

1 large cauliflower head

3 medium size potatoes
2 medium size onions

3 tbsp ginger paste (I used 2 tbsp grated ginger)

2 tsp garlic (I used 3 garlic cloves)

1 1/2 tsp turmeric(I used 1/2 tsp and added coriander and cumin)

1 tsp red chili powder (I am a wimp so I used 1/4 tsp)

Salt to taste
3/4 cup olive oil

1. Chop cauliflower in to small pieces and dice the potatoes.

2. Slice onions finely and fry in oil till light brown. Add ginger and garlic and lower the heat. Fry for a few minutes stirring occasionally. Add all the spices, then add the cauliflower.
3. Increase heat and stir well till it is mixed/coated with the onion and garlic. Add potatoes and stir till the potatoes are nicely coated with oil.
4. Lower the heat and let it cook till the cauliflower and potatoes are tender and all the water from the vegetables has dried and you can see the oil around them, about 40 minutes.
