Extra tips

  • This dish is a dry stir-fry (Dry) and does not require added water. If it gets too dry and sticks to the pan, you can add a very small amount of water (about 15-30ml), but not too much.这道菜是干炒风格(Dry),不需要加水。如果觉得太干容易粘锅,可以加入极少量水(约 15-30ml),但不宜过多。
  • Do not cut the potato cubes too small, or they may fall apart while stir-frying.土豆块不要切太小,否则容易炒散。
  • Slightly charred edges on the cauliflower are normal and actually enhance the flavor.花菜的边缘略微焦黄是正常的,反而会增添风味。
  • Serve with Indian flatbread (Naan), roti, or rice.可以搭配印度烤饼(Naan)、印度薄饼(Roti)或米饭食用。
  • Aloo Gobi became well known in the West due to the 2001 film 'Bend It Like Beckham'.Aloo Gobi 因 2001 年的电影《像贝克汉姆一样踢球》而在西方世界广为人知。
