  • 1/2 bunch coriander leaves, chopped finely
  • A pinch of saffron (or red coloring), dissolved in milk

  • 1 1/2 teaspoon of garlic, chopped
  • 2 tsp soya sauce
  • 1 1/2 tablespoon of cornflour , dissolved in water

  6. Add the soy souce and stir for a minute.
  7. Bring down the heat and then add the cornflour-water paste and the red coloring.
  8. The mixture will start to thicken......keep on stirring on low heat and when the mixture turns thick enough, add the chopped corainder leaves and stir for 20 seconds. The leaves should not lose thier color.
  9. Take this mixture from the heat and pour it onto the fried caulilower.
  10. If you desire, you can add the cauliflower when the mixture is in the pan itself in the last stage. But this will turn the cauliflower soggy. It all depends on how you like to eat the Cauliflower manchurian...soft or crispy...
  11. Enjoy your Gobi Manchurian. Hope you love this Indian recipe.
