    I love cauliflower a lot..I often make gobi 65 or gobi manchurian at home..This is the cousin sister of gobi manchurian.LOL..because it slightly resembles manchurian but lot more spicier than that. This is perfect for appetizer with a cup of any cool drinks..

      Ajinomoto is a stuff which most chinese use in their dishes to give that a real chinese taste..you can easily skip that and continue..

      You can also add rice flour with all purpose flour and cornflour.. It makes cauliflowers crispy.
