• Oil to fry

Method :

1. Cut the cauliflower into medium sized florets. Make sure you clean them well. Sprinkle a pinch of salt and keep aside.
2. In a bowl mix together the dry ingredients for the batter. Slowly whisk in water to make a lump free thick batter.
3. Heat oil in a pan. Dip the cauliflower florets in the batter, one by one, and deep fry. Once done, reserve the batter fried cauliflower, while you make the sauce.
4. In another pan heat a couple of tablespoons of oil. Add the onion, garlic, ginger and green chilies. Saute for a few minutes on high heat.
5. Add the soy sauce,a large pinch of sugar and the tomato sauce and give a good toss. Once it begins to caramelize, add the corn flour dissolved in a few table spoons of water.
6. It takes only minutes to reduce, toss in the cilantro leaves and the batter fried cauliflowers. Toss it on high heat for a while. Add the cracked pepper, adjust seasoning (be careful here, the sauces usually make for almost enough salt) and remove from heat.
7. Heat a frying pan greased well with oil, add a ladle of battle and twirl the pan to spread it out into a thin disc. Wait for a minute or so that one side gets done. Slowly release the sides with the ends of your spatula before flipping it over. Cook on the other side for no more than 30 seconds.
8. Serve the Gobi Manchurian on a thin pancake or rolled into one.
