PICK AN INGREDIENT

You are away from home for an extended period of time. You have tasted most of what the local cuisine has to offer you. Your mind wanders back to the dosa and sambar, chaat, dal chaawal, rasmalai, aloo paratha.. all those things you took so much for granted back home. Me? I crave Gobi Manchurian. One evening, I drove TH nuts saying I want gobi manchurian and I want it now. Its easy to find Indian food in Singapore, especially North Indian, but Indo-Chinese, not so much unless you are ready to go the extra mile to Little India, literally. That evening we went, and I was happy only after I polished off an entire plate of gobi manchurian all by myself. The next day, I made it at home. Yes, the very next day, why do you ask? I really wish I had step by step pictures, especially to show the batter consistency, but I have measured out the ingredients quite accurately so this should come out well for you.

1. Let's start with the sauce. Heat oil and fry the onions, capsicum, green chillies, if using, and garlic until the onions turn golden brown. 2. Add the ketchup and the green chilli sauce to the onions and mix well. Fry for 30 seconds.

October (7) 3. Turn the heat to high and add the soy sauce and vinegar. Mix well for 5 seconds and lower heat back down. Fry for 30 more seconds. 4. Now add the cornflour-water mixture and mix until the sauce thickens. Check salt and add more only if necessary, since the soy sauce and chilly sauce may have salt. Set sauce aside. 5. Mix ingredients for the batter until you get a slightly loose batter of pouring consistency. Heat oil until its just short of smoking hot, coat each cauliflower with the batter and drop it into the hot oil. Fry until golden brown and drain on kitchen towels. Repeat. 6. Once all the cauliflower florets have been fried, add to the sauce and mix well. Serve hot garnished with coriander leaves or green onions. Note: this recipe is for the dry version of gobi manchurian that's usually served as an appetizer. You can stick toothpicks into the florets and serve as an appetizer or add more water-cornflour mixture and make the sauce looser to serve with fried rice.

Aquadaze, yes been to Indian Wok in Siglap but they didn't have gobi manchurian!! Reply

aquadaze November 26, 2009 10:22 AM huh...they don't have the quintessential indo-chinese dish!! Hmmm...that means they don't serve authentic indo chinese! Reply

Nags November 26, 2009 10:23 AM You said it! they have chilly fish and I think veg manchurian but not gobi manchurian. we found the food just so-so and a bit overpriced, actually. Reply

Arch November 26, 2009 12:15 PM gobi manchurian is officially indian, Nags ! in fact at one point i thought it was totally adopted by bangalore..You would see little stalls named 'gobi manchurian' and they served just that. The waiters at the restaurant (serving south indian and north indian food) would continue waiting at the table in case u forgot to order gobi manchurian..it was a must with every order !! chinese/indo chinese doesnt seem too popular in ahmedabad and i really miss my bangalore gobi manchurian - seems simple enough, must try... Reply

Nags November 26, 2009 12:17 PM I've heard that indo chinese food originated in West Bengal. I can't be sure though, its just hearsay :) Reply

sheetal November 26, 2009 3:02 PM hello..it looks heavenly..as far as food p'graphy is concerned, i will have to come to S'pore and learn from you directly. sheetal Reply

sangeeta November 26, 2009 6:47 PM Nags... it's true indo chinese food originated in Calcutta...china town of Calcutta situated in a localty called tangra ... Nelson Wang is the man and i came to know this through Vir Sanghvi ( of course through his columns)... Reply

RedChillies November 27, 2009 12:41 AM Oh goody! You know my 4 year old has taken a liking for Gobi and asks if we can make it at home. Glad that i now have this recipe. Reply

Mahimaa's kitchen December 2, 2009 10:33 AM yum yum... i love cauliflower manchurian too.. am a big cauliflower fan. can have anything made of it. nice click. Reply

Anonymous December 4, 2009 5:21 PM Hi Naga, made it today! Totally enjoyed it. My sauce turned out a little too thick, and I had to make it thin with a little flour and water mixture while mixing. Since I was making it thin, I thought I might need to add soy sauce, chilly sauce, tomato ketchup proportionately. However, that seems to have made the sauce a little too dark coz of the soy, and I did not get the lovely golden brown colour as in your picture. The taste was awesome though, and I have taken pictures too:D. The frying is the only part that makes this dish tedious, but totally worth the effort:-)Shreya Reply

meens May 4, 2010 12:04 AM Hi Naagu, I tried your recipe this evening & it was such a hit. I crave for manchurian type of food during those off days and when I don't have the energy to go out to restaurant, I do feel like preparing the same. till now, whatever I tried turned out to be something like manchurian but following your recipe I got the perfect taste and yes, yes, yes, this is the taste I was craving for and am so happy to have found this recipe. After having a full plate of it, I just came to give my fb and take a print of the recipe. thank you so much. I found my favorite recipe finally. the batter came out perfect and so the whole recipe. thank you again. Meena Reply

Jaysri September 28, 2010 10:24 AM Hi Nags, Am planning to make this gobi manchurian tomorrow. I have a doubt. Can I use corn starch in place of corn flour? By corn flour, do you mean the pure white one or little yellow one...? Reply

Aparna September 30, 2011 12:56 PM Hi..This recipe turned out awesome to taste. except that it didn't 'look' as nice in your pic. once i added the soy sauce, the whole sauce and final dish all looked so dark :( How did u manage to keep this colour looking so good?? Reply

Nags October 10, 2011 3:45 PM i think a lot depends on the colour and density of the soya sauce used. mine is a light version. in fact, i was hoping for a darker colour :) Reply

Anonymous December 19, 2011 8:53 PM For the batter I added 1/4 cup of water and it became too watery. How much water do we add exactly? Reply

1/4 cup water is approximate. Start with 2 tbsp and then add more Reply

Chandra May 15, 2012 12:29 PM Hi Nags, Tried this recipe today. It is superb!! I thought of trying this 'coz there is no egg involved in this and it sounded easy. Not only was this easy but really tasty. Loved, loved, loved it! I too am a fan of cauliflower manchurian, but I don't like the 'eggy' taste most restaurant-made manchurian has. You have an amazing blog here. Great recipes and pictures. Thank you.. Chandra Reply Replies Nagalakshmi V May 16, 2012 9:43 AM

thank you so much for trying the gobi manchurian recipe. i am not a fan of adding egg to the manchurian batter either (not for the vegetarian manchurian recipes, anyway) so this works out perfect for me. let me know if you try other recipes.

Anonymous July 26, 2012 9:55 AM My husband and I lived in Singapore for a while and loved visiting Little India. I especially enjoyed Gobi Manchurian. After having it one evening we went to Mustafa and found a a jar of sauce for the dish. It was very good but was enough for two preparations. We have since moved to San Francisco and I wanted to prepare the dish so I went online and found yours. The fact that you live in Singapore and know what Little India has to offer gave your recipie great credibility. Thank You for publishing this. Jeanette Reply
