Gobi Urval

Blogging has made me A bit tension free sometimes, reason being less thinking of what to cook when I don’t have any Idea as to what I should prepare. Most of the time it leaves me salivating or just thinking about the dish ;). Same did this dish do to me when I first saw it in Sai’s Blog. She had posted a lovely recipe of Paneer Urval and I kept on thinking to make it.  One fine day when I thought of making it I realized that I am short with paneer/ cottage cheese so I made it with Gobi/Cauliflower.
So here is my recipe for Gobi Urval.
