Ingredients
Scale
Vegetables
- 1 medium head cauliflower florets, chopped into even pieces
- 2 medium potatoes (Russet or Yukon Gold), cubed
Spices & Seasonings
- 1 teaspoon turmeric powder
- 1 teaspoon cumin powder
- 1 teaspoon coriander powder
- 1 teaspoon garam masala
- 0.5 teaspoon red chili powder (adjust to taste)
- 1 teaspoon salt (adjust to taste)
- 1 teaspoon amchur powder (optional, can substitute with lemon juice)
Other Ingredients
- 2 cloves garlic, grated (or garlic powder as substitute)
- 1 inch ginger, grated (or ginger powder as alternative)
- 3 tablespoons olive oil (or avocado oil or melted ghee)
- 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice (for serving)
- 2 tablespoons chopped cilantro (for garnish)
Instructions
- Preparation Steps: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper to ensure easy cleanup and prevent sticking.
- Combine Vegetables: Place the chopped cauliflower florets and cubed potatoes into a large mixing bowl, making sure they are roughly uniform for even cooking.
- Add Seasonings: To the vegetables, add olive oil, turmeric powder, cumin powder, coriander powder, garam masala, red chili powder, salt, and optional amchur powder. Grate in garlic and ginger as well. Toss everything thoroughly until the vegetables are evenly coated with the spice mixture.
- Arrange on Baking Sheet: Spread the seasoned vegetables out evenly on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer to ensure proper roasting.
- Bake: Place the sheet in the preheated oven and roast for 40 to 45 minutes. Halfway through cooking, stir the vegetables gently to promote even browning and tender crispness.
- Finish and Serve: Once tender and lightly browned, remove from the oven. Garnish with freshly squeezed lemon juice and sprinkle with chopped cilantro to add brightness and freshness before serving.
Notes
- You can substitute amchur powder with extra lemon juice if preferred for a tangy flavor.
- Use garlic and ginger powder as substitutes if fresh ingredients are unavailable.
- Adjust the red chili powder quantity to control the heat level according to your preference.
- If using Russet potatoes, ensure they are cut into similar-sized pieces as cauliflower for even cooking.
- This dish can be served as a side or a main vegetarian course when paired with rice or flatbread.
