Ingredients:

For the Gobi (Cauliflower) Fritters:

1 medium cauliflower (cut into florets)

1/4 cup cornflour (cornstarch)

1/4 cup all-purpose flour (maida)

1 teaspoon ginger-garlic paste

1/2 teaspoon red chili powder

1/4 teaspoon turmeric powder (optional)

Salt to taste

Water (to make batter)

Oil (for deep frying)

For the Manchurian Sauce:

1 tablespoon oil

1 medium onion (finely chopped)

1/2 bell pepper (finely chopped)

2-3 green chilies (slit or chopped)

1 tablespoon ginger-garlic paste

2 tablespoons soy sauce

1 tablespoon vinegar

1 tablespoon tomato ketchup

1 tablespoon red chili sauce (adjust to taste)

1 tablespoon cornstarch (dissolved in 2-3 tablespoons of water)

Salt to taste

1/4 teaspoon sugar (optional)

1 tablespoon spring onions (chopped, for garnish)

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Gobi Fritters:

Boil water in a large pot and add a pinch of salt.

Add cauliflower florets and blanch them for 2-3 minutes. Drain and set aside to cool.

In a mixing bowl, combine cornflour, all-purpose flour, ginger-garlic paste, red chili powder, turmeric powder (optional), and salt. Add enough water to form a thick batter.

Dip each cauliflower floret into the batter and coat it evenly.

Heat oil in a pan for deep frying. Fry the battered cauliflower florets until golden brown and crispy. Remove and set aside on paper towels to drain excess oil.

2. Prepare the Manchurian Sauce:

Heat oil in a wok or large pan. Add chopped onions and bell peppers, sauté for 2-3 minutes until they soften.

Add green chilies and ginger-garlic paste, sauté for another minute until fragrant.

Add soy sauce, vinegar, ketchup, and red chili sauce. Stir well to combine.

Add the dissolved cornstarch mixture to the sauce to thicken it. Stir and cook for 2-3 minutes.

Add salt and sugar (optional) to taste.

3. Combine the Gobi and Sauce:

Add the fried cauliflower florets into the pan with the sauce. Toss them gently to coat the florets in the sauce.

Cook for another 2-3 minutes to allow the flavors to blend.

4. Garnish and Serve:

Garnish with chopped spring onions.

Serve hot as an appetizer or side dish with fried rice or noodles.

Enjoy your delicious, crispy Gobi Manchurian!
