Gobi manchurian recipe a perfect restaurant style recipe with easily available ingredients.
Gobi manchurian recipe with step by step pictures and video.A perfect restaurant style gobi manchurian recipe recreated.
I always love recreating restaurant style dishes ,since its lockdown and we are restricting from getting outside food, its more of such recreations.I have a seperate category for restaurant style dishes and that approves my love for recreating the style.
Though I like all manchurian dishes, gobi manchurian tops the list.But I am always hesitant to try in hotels as I am doubtful of the gobi cleaning process in hotels and for that reason I constraint myself from any gobi dishes in hotels.
I love both dry and saucy manchurian recipes but not the one with watery gravy.This version is inbetween and I like it the best the crisp gobi peices in a tangy sauce perfect as in restaurants.Do try this and let me know how you liked it.
Variations:
- You can replace maida with wheat flour too.
- You can tawa roast the gobi instead of deep frying too but make sure its crisp, use iron flat tawa for best results.
- You can replace red chilli sauce with green chilli sauce too.
- You can add onion,capsicum if you like.
