Cauliflower Curry

This is a very simple dry curry/poriyal prepared with cauliflower. It goes well with both rice and all Indian breads. My family loves this curry very much. I have added ginger as it aids in digestion and also because my family loves it. Those who do not like the taste of ginger can omit that. Today we will learn how to make gobi/cauliflower sabji following this easy recipe.
