Notes:
  • Washing cauliflower with hot water and salt, helps to remove any worms in it.
  • Serve it immediately to get crispy taste of gobi manchurian.
  • I used sriracha sauce (chilli garlic sauce) in this recipe instead of green chilli sauce.
  • Do not over crowd while deep frying cauliflower.
