Gobi Tamatar is a delicious and flavorful Indian dish made with cauliflower (gobi) and tomatoes (tamatar), cooked in a spiced tomato-based gravy.

To prepare Gobi Tamatar, cauliflower florets are first blanched or sautéed until partially cooked. In a separate pan, a mixture of tomatoes, onions, garlic, ginger, and spices such as cumin, coriander, turmeric, chili powder, and garam masala is prepared and cooked until the tomatoes break down and form a thick gravy.

The partially cooked cauliflower florets are then added to the tomato gravy and simmered until they are fully cooked and tender, absorbing the flavors of the spices and tomatoes. Additional water may be added as needed to achieve the desired consistency of the gravy.

Gobi Tamatar is typically garnished with fresh cilantro leaves before serving. It pairs well with rice or Indian breads like roti or naan, making it a wholesome and satisfying vegetarian dish that is enjoyed across India for its rich flavor and comforting appeal.
