Easy Gobi Manchurian No-Fry Version
Ingredients
Cauliflower(Gobi)-1
Green chilly-4
Big Onion-3
Ginger-1small piece
Garlic-4pods
Capsicum-1
Spring onion-2tbsp
Coriander leaves-1/4cup(opt)
Soya sauce-3tbsp
Chilly sauce -1tsp
Tomato sauce-1tbsp
Sugar-1tsp
Vinegar-1tsp
Salt-to taste
Cornflour -1tbsp
Water-1tbsp
Oil-1tbsp
Method
Clean and wash the cauliflower florets in salt water .Keep them aside .
Heat oil in a non stick pan ..Add chopped onion,ginger ,garlic and green chilly together and saute ..Saute till the raw smell goes.
Then add the cauliflower and capsicum to this and mix well ..Add pinch of salt and stir ..Now close the pan and cook the cauliflower for 10 minutes .In between stir them (Sometimes there is a chance of sticking in the pan)
After 10 minutes take one piece and bite it and see ..If u want the gobi to cook more close and cook .
Or if its cooked then add soya sauce ,chilly sauce,tomato sauce ,sugar ,vinegar and spring onion one by one ..
Mix this properly ..Check the salt ,we are adding soya sauce so be careful in adding the salt.Then sprinkle cornflour mix (mix corn flour in water without lumps) to this and stir .
Finally add coriander leaves (opt).It gives a nice aroma to the manchurain and increases the taste too ..So I used to add that ..
If u don’t prefer omit this step.Allow the cauliflower manchurian to cook for 10 more minutes in low flame (to remove the raw smell and taste of cornflour )
So the simple and yummy Gobi munchurian is ready to serve .Garnish with green chilly and coriander leaves.(U can increase or decrease the no of chilly)
Serve with fried rice ,chapaty etc
Love
Veena

Looking very much tempting…Awesome Veena.. I could not take my eyes back..

That’s a nice variation! I make something similar for appam.
Just a small typo I think you should correct. Instead of saying “omit” you have used “vomit” in one sentence. Do check that
