Fried Gobhi (Cauliflower)

For this recipe one can use fresh cauliflower or pre-cut cauliflower that is available in frozen section of nearly all supermarkets. I use the latter version as I am lazy.If like me you are using frozen cauliflower, its important that you don't thaw it or else it will become watery.

Tastes great with Tava Roti, Tandoori Roti and Naan Bread and also goes well with No Egg Wheat Gluten Bread.
