Gobi 65


This is a simple side dish that makes any meal special. It goes well with fried rice, veg biryani or any other variety rice. There are many different ways to do this. If you have already been doing this, try it this way for a change. Actually, this is my grandmom's recipe. When she put in the ingredients I did not get a chance to measure it. So I just eye balled it. After that I just followed her instructions. I have not used egg  and it turned out perfectly fine.

Ingredients:

 
Cauliflower-1 (medium size)
Onion- 1
Green chillies- 3
Garlic- 1
Corriander leaves-few

For marination:
Turmeric- 1/4 tsp
Chilli powder- 2 tsps
Salt-as required
Color powder- optional
Cornflour- 1 tbsp
Maidha- 2 tbsp
Curd- 2 tsp
Tomato sauce- 2 tsp

Procedure:
Cut cauliflower into bite size florets and put it in hot salted water for 2 to 3 mins. Drain and put all the ingredients under 'marinade'. Mix everything well without adding water. Keep it aside for 5 to 10 minutes. Heat oil and deep-fry the florets.

In a kadai, heat little oil and saute onion, green chillies, garlic and salt. Remove when onions are cooked but still crunchy. Add some pepper and corriander leaves. Keep this aside. After draining the cauliflower florets add it to the onion mixture. Mix well and serve with ketchup.
