Cauliflower Curry Andhra StyleCauliflower Curry Andhra style is one of the simple and aromatic curry recipes made in South India. I tried to prepare it very simple by reduced spices and by adding only a spoon of garam masala. You can make it gravy style by keeping little water or even a bit dry where gravy exists absorbed by florets.

Gobi Curry Recipe can be prepared by even bachelors, It can be prepared in less than 30 minutes. If made dry version then it goes well with chapati.

I suggest you clean florets with salted warm water for at least 10 minutes, sometimes you find small insects hidden if not properly stored by market vendors. Also while purchasing florets we need to check whether there is any fungus on florets.

Cauliflower Curry is a good nutritional recipe bundled with fiber and has a property to stop strokes. Doctors always suggest making cauliflower as one of your diet element as it helps in the development of a child. It serves well with chapati and rice.
