Instead of grinding the spices and coconut like we normally do for kuruma, this recipe uses a ready-made pappula podi (powder) that gives the dish the thickness and flavor. You can make this powder in bulk...]]> http://cooksjoy.com/blog/2015/04/easy-cauliflower-peas-kuruma.html/feed 0 http://cooksjoy.com/blog/2015/03/cauliflower-potato-kofthas-cauliflower-potato-balls-in-tangy-gravy.html http://cooksjoy.com/blog/2015/03/cauliflower-potato-kofthas-cauliflower-potato-balls-in-tangy-gravy.html#comments Wed, 25 Mar 2015 12:30:51 +0000 Vardhini http://cooksjoy.com/blog/?p=17102 Kofthas are a popular North Indian dish and has a ton of variations and is packed with flavor. They can be made with vegetables or meat and is usually accompanied with a tangy tomato or white gravy. The kofthas go well with rice or flat bread and need to be handled delicately.

The combination looked different and the curry was easy to make. It uses just chilly powder and no fancy masala. The original recipe suggested to grind the masala ingredients as is without sauteing, but since raw onion has always tasted bitter when blended, I sauteed...]]> http://cooksjoy.com/blog/2013/04/cauliflower-mushroom-curry-gobi-mushroom-curry.html/feed 3 http://cooksjoy.com/blog/2013/04/aloo-gobi-fry-cauliflower-potato-fry.html http://cooksjoy.com/blog/2013/04/aloo-gobi-fry-cauliflower-potato-fry.html#comments Wed, 17 Apr 2013 04:26:16 +0000 Vardhini http://cooksjoy.com/blog/?p=9664 I  have to admit that before I made this dish, my idea of aloo gobi was just potatoes added to this cauliflower curry. It had both the key ingredients and I was happy with the taste. But, when it comes to blogging I wanted to make it the right way and as always my friend...]]> http://cooksjoy.com/blog/2013/04/aloo-gobi-fry-cauliflower-potato-fry.html/feed 4 http://cooksjoy.com/blog/2013/03/cauliflower-fry.html http://cooksjoy.com/blog/2013/03/cauliflower-fry.html#comments Sat, 16 Mar 2013 05:12:25 +0000 Vardhini http://cooksjoy.com/blog/?p=8425 Growing up, cauliflower was made on rare occasion only. I have this faint memory of my Ammamma (Grandma) making this dish and how it had the perfect blend of spices. It sure is a simple dish, but I had a lot of trouble initially.
