Ingredients:
- 2 cups of cauliflower florets

- 1/4 teaspoon of turmeric powder

- 1 teaspoon of garam masala
- 2 green chilies, minced
- 1 small onion, diced
- 1 tomato, diced
- 1 teaspoon of coriander powder
- 2 tablespoon of all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoon of corn flour
- 1/4-1/2 teaspoon of sugar
- 2 tablespoons of oil
- Salt, to taste
- Cilantro, for garnish
Instructions:
- Steam or blanch the cauliflower to soften it. Then pat dry and set aside.
- In a small bowl, mix together the ginger garlic paste, turmeric, red chili powder, garam masala, green chilies, onion, tomato and coriander powder. Set aside.
- In a separate bowl, mix together the flour and corn flour. Add water gradually to make a thick batter. Add salt and sugar, mix again and set aside.
- Heat oil in a wok or large pan over medium heat. Dip each cauliflower floret in the batter, shake off excess and add to the pan. Fry until lightly golden brown and crisp, about 2-3 minutes.
- Remove from the pan and set aside. Add the prepared ginger-garlic paste to the pan. Cook for a couple minutes until fragrant and the raw smell is gone.
- Add the fried cauliflower back to the pan and stir together to coat with the mixture. Cook for about 3-4 minutes until the sauce thickens and coats the cauliflower.
- Garnish with cilantro and serve warm with Indian flatbreads, fried rice or noodles.
