  • Salt to taste
  • 2 tablespoons cooking oil

TIPS

  2. You can blanch the cauliflower florets in hot water for a few minutes before adding them to the curry to ensure they cook evenly.
  3. Add a handful of green peas or diced bell peppers for additional flavor and color.
  4. For a creamier texture, you can add a splash of coconut milk or cashew paste to the curry.
  5. Leftover Gobi Masala can be stored in the refrigerator for a few days and reheated when needed.
