    Like many others I skipped the initial frying stage and instead roasted both the potatoes and cauliflower. The flavor was very good and overall I found the dish very easy to make.

    I parboiled the potatoes and the cauliflower prior to frying and cut down on the amount of oil. Next time will try roasting the potatoes and cauliflower as some other cooks have suggested. The flavor was very good. I didn't have any chilies, so I added red pepper flakes, and a pinch of hing before I added the veggies to the oil. I also added a squeeze of lime before serving. I very much enjoyed this recipe and will make it again !

    It was good, but not fabulous. I, too, roasted the potatoes and cauliflower instead of frying. Not sure if that makes a difference. Used Olive Oil and Ghee as well. Also added a box of Turtle Island curry tempeh to get a little protein into our veggie diets. Have a feeling that this dish will taste better tomorrow.

    This recipe is fantastic. I added lime juice at the end and enjoyed it with raita. I have become lazy to add specific spices so I used Ajika Gobi Aloo Spices. As my other posts will reveal I am in love with my discovery of Ajika Spices. It has truely made my international cooking, easy and tasty.

    This recipe ROCKS! I opted to make it as low fat as possible so I boiled the potatoes and steamed the cauliflower. I then fried the spices in about 1 Tbsp olive oil and added the potatoes and cauliflower. Also did add more than the 3 Tbsp of water. Totally loved it and will make it again!

    This was delicious and easy! I too dispensed with the frying procedure and roasted the potatoes at 400 for 10 minutes before adding the cauliflower to roast for an additional 20 minutes. I also added 1/3 cup of coconut milk in place of some of the water. The coconut milk added a wonderful creaminess that didn't over power. This dish is meant to be fairly dry. A definite keeper which is going into regular rotation.

    This dish was delicious! Pair it with a daal, rice and some curry chicken and you're set for a full meal. And, it's gluten-free, which is key for people like me with a gluten intolerance!

    My husband is an indian food lover and requested this when he found out I bought califlower from the grocery store. I skipped the frying and roasted the potatoes and califlower in the over at 400 for about 20 minutes. I agree to add some more water after you put them in the pan after adding the spices. My potatoes were a little underdone but the flavor was delicious!

    Very flavorful and delicious! Recommend using a little more water and letting cook covered for 5-10 longer at the end...it melds the ingredients together a little better. I'm also going to try this with boiling the potatoes instead of frying for a healthier option.
