gobi 65 recipe | cauliflower 65 | how to make crispy gobi fry 65 with step by step photo and video recipe. gobi or cauliflower is a versatile vegetable and is used for different types of indian cuisine. the most common recipe derived from gobi is the sabzi or curry made on day to day basis. yet there are certain snack recipes made from it, and gobi 65 is one such unique and interesting snack recipe full of flavour.

as i mentioned previously, there is an interesting history about the name for this recipe. apparently the recipe was first started by a military canteen in tamilnadu. in the menu list, it was the 65th item and hence the name was derived as gobi 65 recipe. well that is one of the popular story floating around, but then there are other stories too. i personally like the way it is made and served. it has the crisp texture due to deep fry. at the same time, it is tossed with a spicy yogurt or curd sauce which would lower the temperature but adds a hint of moist to the snack. while tossing with the sauce is not a mandatory, but it helps add desi taste to it.

anyway, some of the critical and important tips, suggestions and variations for a perfect crispy gobi 65 recipe. firstly, i would heavily recommend using a fresh and tender cauliflower for this recipe. stale cauliflower may turn the gobi florets soggy and may not hold the crisp shape. secondly, i have used cornflour and rice flour to get the necessary crisp level, but this can be achieved with just rice flour too. but use it only when you do not have corn flour. lastly, due to the nature of the recipe, it has to be served immediately once it is tossed with yoghurt sauce. alternatively you can deep fry and keep it ready and toss it with the sauce when you are about to serve it.
