This is one dish I am dedicating to my husband. He normally doesn't have any particular choice or likings of food. But on every Thursday when he sees me cooking pure vegetarian food, he would come up and ask me about Gobi Manchurian. So one day I decided to make this dish for him specially . I followed the recipe of Gobi Manchurian from the blog "Archana's kitchen" and he just loved it. Then on my little girl's 5th birthday this year, we ordered the food from a nearby caterer and Gobi Manchurian was there in the menu. Believe me it was so so tasty and mouth-watering that I could not stop asking the manager about the recipe. And he very happily shared the same with me. Though I am not sure if he has disclosed any of the secret ingredients they add on to it. Whatever I could understand and fixed in my mind from him, I tried with that to make my Gobi Manchurian the next time.
Ingredients:
1 small sized cauliflower,
3 tbsp maida
4 tbsp cornflour
Ginger and garlic paste 1 tspn each
Pepper powder 1/2 tsp
Oil for deep frying
Salt to taste
1/2 of a small green capsicum
1 tbsp soya sauce
1tbsp tomato sauce
2 medium sized spring onions finely chopped (both white and greens)
Method:
Break the cauliflower into medium florets and par boil them in water with some salt over medium flame for 4-5 mins. After boiling , strain the water and pat dry on tissue paper.
Make a nice batter with the maida, corn flour, salt to taste, pepper powder, ginger garlic paste 1/2 tsp each with sufficient amount of water. The batter should not be very thick also should not be very thin. Now add the par boiled florets in the batter. Note that the batter should coat all the florets nicely.
Now in a deep pan, heat oil and fry these florets carefully till golden brown in medium flame. To drain excess oil, transfer the fried florets into a tissue paper.
For the gravy, chop the white portion of spring onions and capsicum. You can give chopped green chillies also into it. I avoid this because of my little girl. Heat oil in a pan , add the chopped onions, capsicum , 1/2 tsp each of ginger and garlic paste, salt to taste and saute them for 2-3 minutes on high flame. Now into this add the soya sauce, tomato sauce and give it a nice mix and cook for about a minute.
Add the fried florets into the mixture in the pan and toss them nicely for 1-2 minutes keeping the flame on high. Now in a small mixing bowl make a light batter of 1 tsp corn flour with required amount of water and pour this into the pan and stir . Cook this for 2-3 minutes on medium flame. Slowly the gravy will get thickened because of the corn flour mixture.
Once you see this, put the flame off . Transfer the Gobi Manchurian to a plate and garnish with chopped spring onion.
