Dip the cauliflower flowerets in this batter and deep fry in oil, drain and set aside.
In an open pan, add some oil and when it smokes add the remaining garlic and
ginger paste.
The minute it starts turning brown, add the chopped onions and fry only till they start
becoming translucent.
Now add the chopped garlic and green chilli paste and fry for a minute.
Add the soy souce and stir for a minute.
Bring down the heat and then add the cornflour-water paste and the red coloring.
The mixture will start to thicken......keep on stirring on low heat and when the mixture
turns thick enough, add the chopped corainder leaves and stir for 20 seconds.
The leaves should not lose thier color.
Take this mixture from the heat and pour it onto the fried caulilower.
If you desire, you can add the cauliflower when the mixture is in the pan itself in the
last stage.
But this will turn the cauliflower soggy..
It all depends on how you like to eat the
Cauliflower manchurian...soft or crispy...
