Vegetable Manchurian



This is an all time favourite dish. I have made it many times as my daughter loves it a lot. But forgot to post in my blog. Recently, one of my friend asked me the recipe for this dish and then i recognized that i have not posted it here. It happens sometimes that the usual dishes which you make, you forget to share with all. 




Any way, here's the recipe for this wonderful and tasty dish. Hope you all will enjoy making it.






Notes:
  1. While frying the vegetable balls, first fry in medium hot oil for 2 minutes ie before changing its colour. Transfer it to a tissue paper and again heat the oil in high flame and put the vegetable balls in it. Fry till it becomes golden brown colour. By doing this the vegetable balls will not soak too much of oil and it will be crispy.
  2. While making vegetable balls, if the mixture is too wet, add little maida/all purpose flour to it.
  3. Adjust the gravy as you wish.

1 cup Cauliflower (grated or finely chopped)
