Spicy hot chilli cauliflower/gobhi chilli

Ingredients

• Cauliflower florets - 3 cups
• Diced onion chunks - 1 cup
• Slit green chillies - 10
• Cornflour - 3 tablespoons
• Maize flour (Maida) - 3 tablespoons
• Salt - As per taste
• Edible red/orange color - as required
• Red chilli powder - as per tolerance
• Red chilli sauce - as required
• Green chilli sauce - as required
• Tomato sauce - as required

Preparation

• In a deep pan boil water with 2 tsp salt. Immerse the cauliflower florets in it and let it cook till just done. Do not over cook it.
• Take them out when done and dry them on a paper towel. Mean while ready the batter by mixing in the maize flour, cornflour, salt, edible color and water.
• Be careful while preparing the batter. The consistency of the batter should be just as much to cover the florets well with a thin layer on top.
• Now dip the florets and deep fry them in oil. You will not need to wait for long as the florets are already boiled so will cook fast.
• Now, take them out when done and place them on a paper towel to let the extra oil get absorbed in the paper towel.
• Next, check the pan/wok for remaining oil in which you deep fried the florets. We now need only 2 tablespoons of oil in the wok so if there is extra oil take it out.
• Heat the oil on high flame and when it is about to get smoky add the diced onions and slit green chillies with salt and some red chilli powder.
• The onions should not get soft and soggy. You just need to saute them for a minute and then add green chilli sauce, red chilli sauce, soya sauce and tomato sauce and continue to saute for another 30 seconds.
• Now add the cauliflower florets and mix in with sauces to enjoy the spicy hot chilli cauliflower.
