Forgotten Recipes of Punjab

Gobhi ke danthal ki subzi

This is a Punjabi delicacy that is relished in winters. We Punjabis don’t believe in wasting any part of the food is it veggies either. Danthal is the lower part of the cauliflower/gobhi, which is usually discarded by most. This is my mom’s recipe and it turns out simply yum.

Ingredients:
  • 1 kg danthal
  • 3 onions finely sliced
  • 5 tomatoes 
  • 1” ginger julienne 
  • 1 tsp garlic paste
  • 1 tsp jeera
  • 1 tsp red chilli powder
  • 2-3 green chillies 
  • Salt as per taste
  • 1/2 tsp haldi
  • 1 tsp amchoor
  • 2 tsp dhania powder
  • 1 tsp garam masala 
  • 3 tbsp oil (I use mustard oil)
  • Fresh coriander leaves
Instructions:
  • Wash the danthal properly. Discard the hard parts. Slice the rest into 2” long wedges. 
  • In a pressure cooker add the mustard oil, once it heats up, add jeera & the finely sliced onions & garlic paste. Once the onion turns light brown, add in the ginger & green chillies. 
  • Next, add the danthal pieces. Cook them for 3-4 minutes. 
  • Add in the tomatoes 
  • Next add salt, Haldi & chilli powder.
  • Cook for 1 whistle. 
  • Once cool, add the coriander powder, dry mango powder & garam masala. Do a taste check. Add finely chopped coriander leaves. Serve with a bread of your choice.
