Gobi65/ cauliflower pakoda

This is my all time favourite snack. Crispy gobi 65 is a great tea time snack or  a tasty starter with a hot soup before a meal. The same recipe can be followed with any veggie of your choice. Thin potato wedges, bitter gourd rings, thinly sliced snake gourd are other options you can try. This goes well as a side dish for rice too.
