    Aloo Gobi Masala or Potato Cauliflower Curry is one of the easiest vegetarian recipes. This popular indian dish is one of the favorite recipes ordered across thew world.You will generally find it as a sukhi sabzi dish in the veg thali along with dal, raita, salad and roti. It is one of my favorite vegetables and I love making it in winters. Whether its gobi paratha, tandoori cauliflower or crispy cauliflower bites (gobi 65), heads of cauliflower transform into easy side dish with the use of aromatic spices.While the west loves cauliflower wings, we love tandoori gobi with marinated cauliflower florets. East or west air-fried cauliflower will be an easy choice everytime you want to enjoy healthy air fryer recipes on the dinner table.

    I have given both the traditional stir-fry and easy air fryer cauliflower recipe for the readers. Apart from this you can also make it in an instant pot but that has more gravy to it. Learn to make this easy recipe traditional or air fryer in steps below.

    Why does everyone love it?

    This mix vegetable recipe is best made in a cast iron pan(if making without tomatoes or use an enameled one for sour gravy). You will find it as a favorite of many North Indians eating out. However, the best reference comes from cult movie Bend it like Beckham. I always remember the scene  while making it. Mom wants Jess to learn making the curry, instead of playing football. It resonates with you as you grow older. Whether you love football or not, you can always learn making it.

    Serve aloo gobi with any roti tandoori or phulka. You may also pair it with dal makhani or dal tadka and you have a party menu ready. Just have it with some raita/ yogurt dip, salad if you want to have lunch quickly. You get the best quality of cauliflower in winter. This hot curry and flatbread just adds some warmth to the cold air. Ditch the ghee and make it vegan if you want to. You will never go wrong with this recipe.
