Notes
- Always deep fry in medium flame else the gobis will drink more oil and will become soggy.
- Make the batter slightly thick not too runny not too thick so that it coats the gobi florets well.
- Adding kashmiri red chilli powder gives it a nice red color without adding any food color and is less spicy too.
- Adding baking soda makes gobi a bit soft to bite else it will become hard and crisp so I suggest to add it.
- No need for resting time, but you can make the marinade well head and refrigerate it incase if you are making for any party.Deep fry only at serving time.
- You can replace maida with wheat flour which is what I have done.
- Make sure to cut into small florets so that the marinade blends well.
