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..

You can also add rice flour with all purpose flour and cornflour.. It makes cauliflowers crispy.
Wow…pictures for each step…that's marvellous…
Is there any substitute for red color?
@Anonymousyou can skip red colour. you can add some kashmiri chilli powder
