Mushiness usually happens for two reasons: too much water or overcooking. Use only the recommended amount of water (just enough to create steam) and cook on low heat. Also, avoid stirring too frequently or vigorously, which can break down the vegetables.
Absolutely. For a 'satvik' or Jain version, you can omit the onions and garlic. The flavor will be different but still delicious. You can enhance the flavor by adding a bit more ginger and a pinch more asafoetida.
Store leftover Aloo Gobi in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To reheat, sprinkle a little water over it and microwave, or gently warm it in a pan on the stovetop over low heat.
Yes. Use the 'Sauté' mode to prepare the masala base (Step 1). Then add the vegetables, salt, and water, and pressure cook on high for 2-3 minutes followed by a quick release. Be careful not to overcook, as pressure cooking can make the vegetables soft quickly.
