Spicy Gobi Schezwan is another variation of very famous street food "Gobi Manchurian".Spicy flavors will make you ask for more ๐
How to make Lunch/Dinner more interesting? that's when you cook some spicy and restaurant / street food style dish, specially when you are HUGE restaurant food fan!
When it's a vegetarian day for us,I always wonder what to make so that everyone eats food without making faces ๐๐ at me.
I like to eat vegetarian and I feel its good to eat vegetables/lentils/legumes to just keep the balance in our diet. We are all hardcore Fish/Chicken lovers,so I have somehow convinced myself that if I eat vegetarian food sometimes in a week,I will keep my body fit too. ๐ one way to get away from Gym.๐
This recipe is more of street food style than healthier version as the Cauliflower florets are deep fried.
Spicy and tangy street food is more alluring than regular vegetarian meal,of-course vegetarian meal has its own advantages but this recipe is more of street food in India
I have shared a lot of street food recipes.Here I am listing a few for you all so its better to have a look at them.
1. Masala Pav
2. Vada Pav
3. Batata Vada
This recipe is variation of famous Gobi Manchurian which is relished across every part of the world where Indian food joints exist. I love the schezwan flavored rice/noodles, not just because its Indo-chinese dish but because its spicy and flavorful too.
Another recipe you can have a look at is my most loved Pan Fried Crispy Noodles.

Tips:
- Schezwan sauce is spicy,so add the sauce as per personal preference. For us this sauce quantity was fine,if you feel that's too spicy or less spicy,adjust accordingly.
- Here you can do variation by adding diced onion and bell peppers too. I did not go for that as I just wanted to focus on cauliflower with schezwan.
