[sandhya4898]

Hello Manjula aunty, your recipes are really awesome and look so easy to make. especially for a working mom like me who always looks for recipes that can be done within no time..

[BrianEaZy]

My Favourite dish! Delicious and healthy. I don't even need to eat meat with vegetarian food tasting this amazing.

[Soldiergirl7777]

Hi Thanks for another awesome recipe..:) Can't wait to try... What can i use instead.. i cannot find any mango power? Thanks.:)))

[Manjulaskitchen]

@Soldiergirl7777

try lemon juice

[Soldiergirl7777]

@Soldiergirl7777 Thank you. :)))

[igemini48]

Dear Manjula.

You are my Indian mom :-)

Thanks so much for your cooking classes.

My husband is American I'm an Eastern Europien and we both love Indian food. So I learned to cook Indian from you.

My husband and I love you.

Happy New Year.

Much love and health to you and your family.

[magadee1000]

Nice way to teach me, thankyou.you made it look so simple.even a thick person like me will cook it on Saturday , show off to my girlfriend.

WISH ME LUCK

[tandbobby]

Good stuff. I also like the pot you use,is it from India?

[momexrath]

Manjula's recipe is SO GOOD! I make it all the time! It's healthy, it's cheap, its fast, and its delicious!

I like to pair it with a fresh sliced cucumber to counter the savory/spicyness!

Thank you so much Manjula!

[floraskitchen]

One of my favorite dishes from India!!

[suzanome3]

i just luv ur recipe

[KapilsLover]

aunty question the cayenne pepper can it be replaced with red chill pepper ..... If that dont work what can I substitute for the cayenne pepper?

[Manjulaskitchen]

@KapilsLover red chilli pepper will work.

[khushi161083]

i tried this it came out really yummmmmmmm thanks

[womanfraumujer]

great recipe, simple and tastes great!

[993akhila]

thanks mam for ur quick response

[993akhila]

hi mam i have a question is it necessary to add amchur powder can we avoid adding it?if we avoid will taste go wrong ....

[Manjulaskitchen]

@993akhila

Amchoor powder adds touch of sourness to the dish, you can avoid or use few drops of lemon juice.

[TheExamlover]

thank u so much aunty ..it turned out wonderful ...many many thanx to u ..mu mom loved it !! :)

[bhenke1986]

Nice recipe. I added some onion and peas and it turned out beautifully. Thanks for the recipe and keep up the good work!

[dhothi22]

aunty if the aloo gobi is too dry when i cook it, should i add more water or oil ?

[Manjulaskitchen]

@dhothi22 add few spoons of water

[dhothi22]

@Manjulaskitchen should i also add water if the food is sticking to the bottom of the pan, whilst i am cooking it?

[lekhram12345]

almost the same the we cook..for variants....skip hing....add rai,onions and lahsoon along with zeera and adrak....add desi tomatoes instead of amchoor powder...hope u like these too....alongwith potatoes_gobi...add green matar/peas(sem)......thanks aunty good luck..all

[igemini48]

@lekhram12345 adding hing helps with digestion. It's very useful supplement.

[MandyCappleman]

Beautiful!

[hnrey10]

just made this recipe yesterday after watching video and it turned out really well, it will be on heavy rotation on our family's menu thanks for posting!

[varunvats69]

By the way, if I wanted to make the gravy version (I really prefer it :) ) when should I add water?

Thanks for taking the time to post the tuts!

[varunvats69]

It's a treat to learn from you! Simple and straight forward instructions without any complications. That is why I prefer your recipes over VahChef's!

[oxford535]

it was really a good racipie .my mom liked it

[pulsarnoise]

Thanks so much for this.

[newtron55]

Thank you Manjula aunty, your aloo gobi recepie is the best ....GOD bless you

[changar111]

very impressesive,

[bl756888]

Thank you Mam

[MrAce2live]

that looks beautiful..=]

[KITTYKATMARJAAN]

dear manjula, is there a difference between regular basmati and brown basmati? will it change the flavor at all?

[pinkysingh007]

Nice video Aunty, thank you. :)

[bornintoTROUBL3pt2]

I made this tonight it was good next time ill make it MORE spicy : D .......Namaste

[hvnsntswtgrl]

This looks so delicious..

[BestestMoron]

You are AWESOME... This is the easiest Alu Gobi recipe I have ever seen and by far the tastiest... Absolutely LOVE IT.. Thank you so very much

[Vana1970]

Hing is for disgestion, it should be added to spiced foods as it helps reducing the microflora in the gut after eating which causes wind.

[hansenma1]

Thank you so much for sharing, I will make it tomorrow, I'm sure it will taste

heavenly

[BohemianBirth]

Yummy Thx you.  I will let you know how it comes out.

[sebastian22]

thanks for sharing this dish, my girlfriend and I are going to try it tonight...hope it turns out nearly as good as yours.

[ZenMistressNYC]

I really enjoy watching and learning from you, Manjula. Thank you for making wonderful teaching videos on you tube!

[prajaktajojare81]

thank you aunty for this recepie....i tried it for the first time...and it turned out to be very tasty......

[rahulyadav04]

i super duper love you.....you r the best..

[sinohui3]

YOUR THE BEST, Thanks for sharing your culinary prowess, and these exquisite dishes!!!!!!

[mikefixac]

From Brea, CA--Thank you so much. I go to an Indian buffett in Anaheim and they have this dish. It's wonderful. I think I would add peas too.

[MsJwalsh123]

I can't get Hing in any grocery nearby, can I omit it from this recipe without changing the taste too much? Or can you suggest something I can substitute?

[Manjulaskitchen]

@MsJwalsh123

You can omit the hing.

[enknee1]

@MsJwalsh123 Most western groceries sell Hing as Asafetida. 

[Vana1970]

@MsJwalsh123 Hing is more for digestion to prevent wind from the cauliflower and potato. If you do get some do not store it with other spices as it will alter their flavours.

[peterkleinlich]

@MsJwalsh123 you will be probably more successful finding hing if you asked for the non-indian name: Asafoetida

If I'm not mistaken, you can use onion and garlic instead of hing (Manjula, please don't slap me :D)

[Vana1970]

@MsJwalsh123 Hing is used in Indian cookery to stop the after affects of some vegetables. In other words it reduces wind caused by the food.

[NBKPZ58]

its awesome,will try it tomorrow.

[cuyapogirl]

I love Indian food, I have a lots of Indian friends. Thank you for sharing your recipe.

[Nosaltypeanut]

Dear Manjula Aunty, you are like Mummy!! :-)

And I am so glad that you do not use garlic and onions in your recipes..The taste of your recipes is equally good if not better... :-)

[somaans]

Hi Manjula I notice you don't use curry leaves in your dishes...is there a reason? Thank you

[trithr]

Thank you Manjula! The curry looks really good. Thank you for promoting vegetarian diet. Namaste and regards!

[kiddiepop]

[bobfikes]

Manjula, you are like the Indian mother i never had! Since 1980, i have wanted to learn Indian cooking, and I thank you so much for your informative Indian cooking videos. I feel like a daughter, learning from you!

[anqeiicdemise]

I was looking for some good cauliflower recipes outside of creamy soup and I have to tell you this hit the spot. Sometimes a gal wants less creamy goodness and more spicy goodness. ^-^

[krukhsana]

Hey Manjula i like all of your recipes thanks :)

Is there a difference between Indian bay leaf and Turkish bay or California Bay (Laurel)?

[ericcartmansh]

none, the indian  version is slightly longer, but the flavor it adds is about the same

[bhasibhaai]

your kitchen platform is so clean :)

[irfand4]

Lovely recipe. Thank you.

Is adding mango powder a must ?

What can be used instead of mango powder ?

[Manjulaskitchen]

@irfand4 use lemon juice.

[RosarioTono]

lots of those herbs, like ginger are so healthy.

[Juveria15]

[amidonx]

Thank you :)

Namaste

[jamarsano]

Thank you Manjulaji. It is lovely.

[marinarem1]

Thank you so much for all the efforts you have made to show us authentic Indian cooking. I'd given up on aloo gobi recipes because the flavour of all my previous attempts have been disappointing. This one is great so I'll be doing it a lot more in future!

[samoora2006]

thanks a lot, looks yummy, going to try it right now

[MohammedMuzzy87]

I love aloo gobi Thank you verry much for showing us how to make this

[lunarpixie85]

Thank you so much! I'm not Indian, but you are inspiring me to delve into Indian cooking for good!

[JewWario]

I have been using this recipe for 2 years. Thank you so much. You make good cooking videos.

[MrSangoo]

[scaderia]

very nice and easy recipe.Thanx a lot

[puppetnonsense]

Made it last night! Delicious!

[m1ss1ontomars]

I have to tell you I always disliked gobhi sabji and never made it. Finally saw your video and decided to try it for a party!!! Got to tell you - everyone loved this simple food item. Thanks for introducing me once again to this wonderful vegetable. Your videos are very simple and easy to follow.

[puppetnonsense]

Thank you so much for making this video! :) We all appreciate it!

[SarcasmPS]

Living in London this became my favorite dish to get in an Indian restaurant down the road. I have since moved away and have been craving this dish.

Thank you so much for posting it!

[dezandang]

thanks heaps aunty ji!!  your recipes show me how to make indian food quickly and easily! keep them coming!

[vinay2702]

Thankyou aunty ji

[naveenmalik14]

Thanks Aunty for these great vedio's for us .

[Manjulaskitchen]

you dont have to use hing (asafetida)

[videogrl123]

I am so greatful for such flavorful and wonderful vegetarian meals. I am not indian, but I have definitely expanded my vegetarian repetoire. Thank you so very much!!!

[totubeornot]

Thanks Manjula ji! My wife and I had so much fun cooking this recipe together last night and again tonight : ) while your video played on our small net laptop - it was great!

Hope you don't mind, we altered the recipe slightly: we added 1 small chopped onion, 2 garlic cloves pressed, 2 small tomatoes chopped, and cut dried mango strips instead of mango powder. We cooked for about 40 mins - maybe should have cooked the potato beforehand, also cut the potato and cauliflower into smaller pieces.

[anari2006]

Thanks Manjula ji, You explained it so nicely and slowly. Any body can cook from this. My wife was not home and I made it for her. Everybody including my 11 year old son and 5 year old daughter like it so much.

I knew already how to make but I never made it with spices paste, I think that was the key.

Thanks a lot.

[rsa1980]

Manjula Auntie, thank you so much for the wonderful recipe and the delightful instruction. I just made Aloo gobi: you were right next to me in the kitchen on the laptop!. My husband really liked it, and said it is really tasty.

[sebtred]

Thank you so much Manjula!

Me and my friends just made this in my kitchen with you on the laptop.

So simple and absolutely delicious.

I've only made complicated curries with time-consuming sauces before so this was a real revelation.

Sebastian, Berlin

[leer0y999]

I CAN SMELL IT FROM HERE!!! Beautiful!

[arssalan1900]

awsome, and so easy, i always check your video before trying anything new, thanks a ton for being there

[shirleygilbert]

I must say your recipes are great!

Thank you...It really helps ...I never cook without checking your recipes for a particular dish - so far I'm doing great, thanks to you!!! Keep up the great work :D

[anupamsomcom]

jio auntiji mai aj hi banaiga

[ericcartmansh]

thank u aunty ji, aap nahi hote toh hum sab bhukhe marte, well atleast we wud have been very unhealthy eating frozen crap :)

[sanarani66]

very very nice manjula..thanks a lot..as I just started to cook and I;m learning how to cook..ur shows really helps me..thanks a lot :) keep it up and stay bless and happy :)

[JackBenny8]

Hello Manjula! I just made this and it turned out delicious! I used very tiny red potatoes and left the skins on as you said. It is quick and easy, and I love how the vegetables don't overcook and the cauliflower stays a little crunchy.

It really helps to watch you actually make your dishes!!

(but my hands are still burning from cleaning out those green chiles!!) :-)

[rogerpeppe]

just made this, delicious, thanks for the video - it's always interesting to see those little techniques that are never mentioned in the books.

one comment: mine took about 40 minutes cooking time, not 15! (maybe the fact i was doing double quantities made the difference)

[maryannemay]

hi manjula,your recipes look fantastic,i love aloo gobi,i will be trying this out,i am a vegan,so would you be able to make pumpkin masala which is another favourite of mine.you explain everything so well,thank you so much and please keep up the good work.

[nishanayn]

hi,,thanks .manjula ji....

[hermioneChi]

mixing spices with water in davance before cooking is new to me..I will try this

[marinamermaid]

Your husband is so fortunate! I like the clear, concise, easy, cooking style you have. It makes it a breeze to follow & looks so good. Thanks for sharing. Oh & it's perfect for my friends who cannot tolerate onions & garlic!

[quirky524]

no, its not sweet potato. This is not a sweet recipe.

[Mirpuria]

It looks like a sweet potato. Normal potato has a beige like outer skin.

[monpura18]

Even though it looks like a sweet potato, it's not. It's regular potato with the red skin. You can use regular russet potato also for this preparation but not sweet potato

[xsamuraifonzx]

is there alot of indian vegan food out there?

[Robertahausen]

a lot of southern indian food is veggie

[l35i5m0r3]

we are able to find lots of vegan Indian food. Just stay away from the paneer! :-)

[chickenflu4]

your tablespoon of oil doesn't seem to be standard tablespoon.

Can you please tell how much ml of oil is used roughly?

[jpo3003]

I believe she says: 3 tablespoons of oil.

[prinshu]

manjula ji,i have seen many recipe,i noticed that you never use garlic and onion??is there any reason?

[hotncool008]

traditionally Jains dont eat onion or garlic, so thats probably the reason

[atbbtb]

this is very nice

clear

easy to understand

thank you

[jibuvpyou]

thank you so much

[kimmmitchell]

Dear Manjula, Thanks so much for posting this. You're wonderful--we just got back from India on Monday and we're missing India and Indian food so much. We have fallen in love with the people, the food, the place! And you're bringing it all back to us.

[nikkibebortha]

thanksss alot Manjula... I absolutelyyy love you for making my life easy. i'm newly married & live in the US & was getting used to the hot plate, as against gas. So its a hugeee help so see you cook so effortlessly. God bless & keep up the great work!

[girlshawncanada]

Thank you Manjula, I have been looking for a really good homemade recipe will be making your aloo gobi for my lunch today!

[ThaiEgho]

Ok thanks that was really helpfull.

When i was in India i ate Aloo Gobi daily but i never go it ''dry'' sort-a-speak it was always with a sauce like the one served with Chicken Tikka Masala, some sort of red/brownish tomatosauce or something does anybody know that recipe??

[need4peace]

wow...is that a potatoe or an apple. It has a strange colour...

[cangooooods]

Um.. It's a potato... There ARE different kinds of potatoes...

[2magaman333]

looks very delicios. i like to see vada pav "s recipe please

[nkotb13]

[auggiedoggy]

Aloo Ghobi is one of the first vegetable dishes I ever tried (eating, not cooking). Definitely going to try this recipe! Thanks for these videos!

[girlsway101]
