This is the dish I was telling you about.
I made red pepper 'fries' with this batter and they were amazing and crispy. Basically, tempura that I dipped in my favorite sauce. I also tried this recipe in full, and it was delicious.
Vegetable oil? 😆 You mean seed oil? Ew
This reminds me of “Chinese” recipes published in the 90’s.
Gobi Manchurian …. sounds like a new character in Star Wars episode ! Yoda, Grogou, and Gobi. Great is food – Nice is eating – mmmm yes ! No try there is – Only eat there is !
U are awesome 😁 ❤🌾🌿🍀🍃👏👌
FOR real 🙏 🎯 NAMASTE 🙏
Where's the meat?
It is imperative you let the oil reach the proper high heat before frying; even so my cauliflower came out too soft and by the time I dressed it in the sauce and served it, it was warm and mush. I don' know how to correct this, but just be aware of the pitfalls.
Bryan Roof is almost the best presenter behind Adam Ried. Keep up the great work Bryan
When this is on the table consider me a Manchurian candidate.
Dude stop saying cauliflower, seriously
I went Rouge on this recipe. I actually cut my cauliflower in a clockwise direction. No one tells me what to do
I can never find the quality of Manchurian at any restaurant in America I've tried it compared to the cheap 10 rupee bowls I'd get at my school cafeteria in Hyderabad growing up… it's never crispy enough, always mushy. And the sauce is rarely hot enough, usually more sweet and sour than I'd like. A big factor for crispiness is not having too big of pieces of florets.
edit: also, it's definitely a side/snack and not a main. It's roughly analogous to pakoras
I'm addicted to Indian food. I have tons of Indian spices, and I cook it as well.
Obviously he has no idea how to pronounce Cauliflower.
One of my favorite dishes. Can’t wait to make my own with this recipe!
The Gobi that beats Kobe. (Ty for sharing this amazing recipe.)
cauliflower steak > beef 😬👈🏻
The indian in me is outraged 😠 that he didn't cook the fried florets in sauce on high heat.
It'll be too cold when served
(The sexy) Bryan Roof cooks a dish that doesn't contain animal protein? I am shocked; I am downright electrocuted.
This guy rules. Loved the snake smoking method in a basic Weber recipe from a while ago.
There is no Chinese Community in India at least I have not heard of such thing
Ive been to Chai Pani!!
so for a *something something" start with a "something" and then finish with a "something"… and then, even white people will like it at your dinner party!
Air fry?
Why not? I’d rather not eat the oil
I love cauliflower and this recipe looks delicious!
I never heard of this dish, but it is something I definitely want to try. Not too many ingredients either, as Indian food goes.
That looks really good. Can you put that on top of noodles? And make more sauce for the noodles? Or rice?
