cauliflower marinated in yogurt – coriander turns so delicious. I have used less oil and made it as a side for rice. Instead, you can add extra rice flour and corn flour; and deep fry to make tasty Malli cauliflower appetizers.

Tips to note  

  • I recommend trimming the thick stalk and cutting small 
  • Always soak them well till they turn soft 
  • Drain the water completely
  • make sure the curd is thick without whey separated

Should I parboil cauliflower?

If you are cutting the cauliflower small without thick stalk no need to parboil. soak till soft press. alternatively, you can parboil and drain the water

Should I add Water for marination?

No, ground coriander yogurt is enough for the marination avoid water.

Spice mix

For tangy flavor use chaat masala. You can use tikka masala or Add any flavor of your choice. You can add garam masala so any masala of your choice

Can  I skip marination?

Marinating makes the cauliflower flavorful so I would recommend it.  You can marinate for a longer time but at least for 30 minutes

Can I make them ahead of serving time?

Since we don’t deep fry I prefer to make them just before serving

Can I add the watery marination while cooking

if you are cooking in the pan, you can use it. If you are deep frying discard the water then add extra flour
