Begin by cleaning the cauliflower florets and blanching them in hot water for about 2-3 minutes. This step ensures they are partially cooked and free of any impurities.
Batter Making: In a large bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, curd, garlic paste, green chilli paste, ginger paste, black pepper powder, and salt. Gradually add water to this mixture to create a smooth, lump-free batter. The consistency should be such that it coats the back of a spoon.
Dip the blanched cauliflower florets into the batter, ensuring each piece is well-coated. This step is crucial for achieving that crispy exterior.
Heat oil in a deep pan and carefully drop the coated florets into the hot oil. Fry until they turn golden brown and crispy. Remove and drain on kitchen paper to remove excess oil.
Serve your crispy Gobi Manchurian hot, garnished with spring onions or cilantro. For those who prefer a wet version, a quick toss in Manchurian sauce, made with soy sauce, tomato ketchup, and spices, will do the trick.
