GOBHI MANCHURIAN !!!!!!

I adapted this recipe from the blog EDIBLE GARDEN.

INGREDIENTS:-

gobhi, cut into florets - 2 cups
oil to deep fry

For the batter:-

maida - 5 tbl sp
cornflour - 3 tbl sp
red chilly pow - 1/2 tsp(optional, depending on heat level preferred)
pepper pow - 1/4 tsp
garlic flake, minced - 1
salt - a pinch
water - 1/4 cup

For the sauce:-

small onion, finely chopped - 1
capsicum, finely chopped - 1/4 cup
garlic flake, minced - 4
green chillies, slit midways - 2
tomato ketchup - 2 tbl sp
green chilly sauce - 1 tsp ( optional but recommended)
soy sauce - 2 tsp
vinegar - 2tsp
cornflour - 2 tsp (mix it with 4 tbl sp water)
salt- check before adding

For garnishing:-

Chopped coriander leaves/or chopped green onions



METHOD:-

1. For sauce, heat oil and fry the onions, capsicum, green chillies if using & garlic until the onions turn golden brown.
2. Add the ketchup & the green chilly sauce to the onions & mix well. Fry for 30 secs.
3. Turn the heat to high & add the soy sauce & vinegar. Mix well for 5 secs & lower heat back down. Fry for 30 more secs.
4. Now add the cornflour-water mixture & mix until sauce thickens. Check salt & more only if necessary, since the soy sauce & chilly sauce may have salt. Set sauce aside.
5. Mix ingredients for the batter until you get a slightly loose batter of pouring consistency. Heat oil until its just short of smoking hot, coat each gobhi floret with the batter & drop it into the hot oil. Fry until golden brown & drain on kitchen towels

6. Once all the gobhi florets have been fried, add to the sauce & mix well. 

7. Serve hot garnished with coriander leaves/green onions.

HAPPY COOKING :))))))
