Aloo Gobi (crockpot recipe)

I've been eating this almost every day since the first time I made it last week. It's pretty simple to put together and so tasty. It also keeps well in the fridge for a quick pre-prepared meal.
If you love spicy food, i think you'll enjoy this one.

This recipe was found on the site, "The Perfect Pantry". It makes 7-8 servings and after doing the calculations, is roughly 90 calories/serving (depending on how large your cauliflower, potatoes, tomatoes, and onions are).

Ingredients
1 large cauliflower, cut into 1-inch pieces
1 large russet potato, peeled and diced
1 medium onion, peeled and diced
1 medium tomato, diced
1 2-inch piece of fresh ginger root, peeled and grated
2 cloves garlic, peeled and grated
2 jalapeño peppers, stemmed and sliced (seeds and all, if you like it very spicy; otherwise, remove the seeds)
1 Tbsp cumin seeds---(I used 1 teaspoon cumin instead)
1 Tbsp cayenne pepper
1 Tbsp garam masala
1 Tbsp kosher salt
1 tsp turmeric
3 Tbsp canola or vegetable oil---(I used only 1 teaspoon of oil to cut down on the calories)
1 heaping Tbsp fresh cilantro, roughly chopped

Directions
In a 4- or 5-quart slow cooker, combine all ingredients except the cilantro. Stir well to distribute the spices.

Cook on LOW for 4 hours, stirring once or twice, if you're around.

Add the cilantro just before you're ready to serve the aloo gobi with rice or naan bread.

    Sounds tasty. I have never used garam masala before. I assume that is a type of hot spice :wink:

    it's actually not hot by itself; it's a mixture of black or white pepper, cardammon, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves. Used a lot in Indian cooking. I' pretty sure you can find it at most grocery stores.

    In the crockpot now. Tasted it. Next time have to cut down on cayenne. Otherwise simply delish!

    I made this yesterday. It was good but WAY too hot, and I didn't even use the whole tablespoon of cayenne. We like spicy foods, but we both had sweat dripping off of us! Will definitely make again but with a lot less cayenne. I also thought that a can of garbanzos in there would be a good addition.
