Gobi manchurian is my favorourite dish in chinese cusine specially if its crispy,i ususally feel its very time consuming to make this recipe at home and so why not better go to some hotel and have it :) but when i first time tasted gobi manchurian at one of my best friend's place who stays right on top of my apartment in bangalore i was highly impressed by her cooking,she is a lady who never gets bored of cooking and is so passionate about cooking that even at my home or rather any of our frends house she will directly barge into kitchen and start helping us with our cooking and giving new ideas,i really learnt a lot from her and her parties are just super faboulous which cannot be missed as the whole cooking preparation is done by herself and the varieties she keep cannot be over seen ,even if there are around 25-50 ppl together at her party she will easily handle all and impress each and everyone by her culinary skills,this recipe is one of her recipes which i have taken from her and now i stick to this whenever im making gobi manchurian ,though i have made some variation in it according to my family tastes.
