Ingredients
Scale
For the Vegetables
- 1 medium head cauliflower, florets chopped into even pieces
- 2 medium potatoes (Russet or Yukon Gold), cubed
For the Spices
- 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)
For the Aromatics
- 2 cloves garlic, grated (or garlic powder as substitute)
- 1 inch ginger, grated (or ginger powder as alternative)
For Roasting
- 3 tablespoons olive oil (or avocado oil or melted ghee)
For Garnish
- 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons chopped cilantro
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking and for easy clean-up.
- Prepare Vegetables: In a large mixing bowl, combine the chopped cauliflower florets and cubed potatoes ensuring even sizes for uniform cooking.
- Season Vegetables: Add olive oil, turmeric powder, cumin powder, coriander powder, garam masala, red chili powder, salt, optional amchur powder, garlic, and ginger to the vegetables. Toss everything thoroughly until all pieces are evenly coated with the spice and oil mixture.
- Arrange on Baking Sheet: Spread the seasoned vegetables evenly on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer to allow for proper roasting and browning.
- Roast: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and roast for 40-45 minutes. Stir or flip the vegetables halfway through cooking to ensure even browning and tenderness.
- Garnish and Serve: Once the vegetables are tender and lightly browned, remove from oven and garnish immediately with fresh lemon juice and chopped cilantro to add brightness and fresh flavor before serving.
Notes
- You can substitute amchur powder with additional lemon juice if you prefer a more citrusy tang.
- For a richer flavor, substitute olive oil with melted ghee.
- Adjust red chili powder according to your spice tolerance.
- Ensure the vegetable pieces are chopped to similar sizes for even cooking.
- This dish pairs well with rice, naan, or as a side to grilled meats or dals.
