Gobi Peas Masala - Cauliflower Peas Masala Curry

Peas and Gobi are a match made in heaven. If you add the right spices, this dish can really be elevated to a fantastic side dish for pulao, rotis, and chapatis. I was on a bit of a cooking hiatus for a while and wanted a simple yet tasty dish to get my groove back. I am also a fan of quick recipes that matches my cooking style and also gives me more time to just laze around and do nothing on a weekend.

Anyway, I am trying revive myself out of the hiatus with this quickie cauliflower peas recipes.

Gobi Peas Masala Recipe

Ingredients:
Cauliflower - one medium, chopped into fine pieces
Peas - ½ cup
Onions - 2 large
Tomatoes - 2
Ginger garlic paste - 2 tbsp
Green chillies - 4
Chicken masala - 2 tbsp
Chilly powder - 2 tsp
Turmeric - ¼ tsp
Oil - 3 tbsp
Salt - to taste

Instructions:

1. Saute the onions in the oil, with some added salt, till golden brown.

2. Add the ginger garlic paste and the masala, along with green chillies. Fry well for 3-4 mins.

3. Next, add the cauliflower, peas and tomatoes and mix well. I like the gobi in small pieces so I chopped it up finely.

4. Add ⅕ cups water and cook closed.

5. Adjust salt to taste. For added taste, also add one pinch sugar.

It tasted fine but lacked the rich colour that I have normally seen in gobi peas masala. Please let me know what you do differently. This was just a quick fix for lunch on Saturday.
