Hello Pavithra!
Here are the recipes you have asked:
Cut one medium cauliflower into florets and wash them. Soak them in hot water for ½ hour. Make a better with ½ cup of corn flour,1sp ginger paste,1sp garlic paste , 1sp gram flour, ½ cup of plain flour, a pinch of garam masala, 3sp chilli powder, red food colour and enough salt. Marinate the florets in this batter for ½ hour. Deep fry them like crisp pakodas. This is called as chilli Gobi or Gobi 65.
Then heat a Kadai and pour enough oil. Add chopped spring onions, slit green chillies , chopped capsicums and a little salt. Fry them well. Add 1tbsp soy sauce, ½ sp ajinamoto and 1sp chilli sauce. Fry for a few minutes and then add the fried florets. Mix well.

Cut one medium cauliflower into big florets and put in salted boiling water for 2-3 min (this is to remove any worms). Mix the florets, cournflour, maida (both in equal quantities), garam masala 1sp (optional), turmeric, omam 1 pinch, finely chopped garlic. Add as little water as possible and make a thick paste. Keep this paste for 1/2 to 1 hr in fridge to get a crisp finish. Make small balls & deep fry in oil (u can also add curry leaves, cashew, crushed ginger & garlic together with the balls)

This tastes like gobi manchurian dry.
