Baked Gobhi (Cauliflower) Directions

  3. Apply all over to the florets with an oil brush. Apply as much as possible; also in the gaps.

  5. For garnishing, heat butter and add spring onions to it. Stir fry for 2 mins.
  6. Pour this along with green dhaniya over the baked gobi and toss lightly with a fork.
  7. Sprinkle some chaat masala over the gobis.
  8. Serve hot. Best served with parathas or naan.
