Learn to make a restaurant Punjabi Aloo Gobi recipe in this step-by-step blog post and recipe video that you will find at the end of this post.
This veg preparation is one of the most popular combinations of two commonly found veggies- potatoes and cauliflower. While the origin of this dish might be unknown but what is certain is that its popularity has taken it to the entire Indian subcontinent. I can tell you there is no one way of making this popular veggie. I feel, that every household has its own way of bringing together Aloo and Gobi in its kitchen and it gets relished with the same excitement in each household.

I have a couple of recipes on this blog like Sarso-wali Aloo Gobi, a UP-style Aloo Gobi preparation, and Flower-Batata Rassa, a Maharashtrian-styled preparation (don’t ask me to choose my favorite).
We Indians love Aloo and Gobi. Potato is a vegetable with a neutral taste that allows it to absorb the spices and provides the desired flavor. The Gobi is equally popular. We make use of Gobi in a variety of preparations. The Gobi in veggies with Aloo, Matar, and Capsicums makes for interesting veg preparation. The Gobi also finds its place in Indian Paratha in form of Gobi-Paratha and not to forget the Gobi in Pulao. Let’s see how to make a restaurant Punjabi Aloo Gobi recipe

Important notes: –
- I have cut gobi florets into uniform-sized pieces to ensure that gobi gets cooked evenly.
- I have added a few basic spices- turmeric powder, red chili, coriander powder, and garam masala. Let the flavor of Gobi through the dish
- I have added whished curd and milk to impart sourness and creaminess to the dish.
- I have not added any extra water to this preparation. Curd and Milk are providing the desired consistency.
- Coriander leaves provide freshness to the dish.
- Add garam masala at the final stages as that gives an aromatic end to the dish. You don’t want to lose aroma by adding it early on.
I think Aloo Gobi is a dish that can not only be served on a daily dinner menu but also can be prepared for your guests when they arrive for lunches.
