Mod de preparare
Pas cu pas
- 1
In a large bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, cornstarch, ginger garlic paste, salt, and black pepper for the batter.
Aproximativ 2 min.
- 2
Gradually add water to the dry ingredients, whisking until you have a smooth, lump-free batter of medium consistency.
Aproximativ 3 min.
Nota bucătarului: The batter should be thick enough to coat the cauliflower florets.
- 3
Add the cauliflower florets to the batter and toss gently to ensure they are fully coated.
Aproximativ 2 min.
- 4
Heat the vegetable oil in a deep pan or wok over medium-high heat until it reaches about 170°C (340°F).
Aproximativ 5 min.
Nota bucătarului: Test the oil temperature by dropping a small amount of batter; it should sizzle and rise immediately.
- 5
Carefully drop the battered cauliflower florets into the hot oil, frying them in batches to avoid overcrowding the pan.
Aproximativ 8 min.
Nota bucătarului: Overcrowding will lower the oil temperature and make the cauliflower soggy.
- 6
Fry each batch for 3-4 minutes, or until the cauliflower is golden brown and crispy.
- 7
Remove the fried cauliflower with a slotted spoon and place it on a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil.
Aproximativ 1 min.
- 8
In a separate pan or wok, heat a tablespoon of the remaining vegetable oil over medium heat.
Aproximativ 1 min.
- 9
Add the chopped ginger, garlic, and green chili, and sauté for 30 seconds until fragrant.
Aproximativ 1 min.
- 10
Stir in the chopped yellow onion and diced bell pepper, cooking for 2-3 minutes until they begin to soften.
Aproximativ 3 min.
Nota bucătarului: Do not overcook the vegetables; they should retain a slight crunch.
- 11
Add the soy sauce, tomato ketchup, chili sauce, rice vinegar, and sugar to the pan, stirring to combine well.
Aproximativ 1 min.
- 12
In a small bowl, whisk together the cornstarch and water to create a slurry.
Aproximativ 1 min.
- 13
Pour the cornstarch slurry into the sauce, stirring continuously until the sauce thickens.
Aproximativ 1 min.
- 14
Add the fried cauliflower florets to the thickened sauce and toss quickly to coat them evenly.
Aproximativ 1 min.
Nota bucătarului: Work quickly to keep the cauliflower crispy.
- 15
Garnish with chopped scallions and serve immediately.
Nota bucătarului: Gobi Manchurian is best enjoyed fresh.
