Gravy Gobi Manchurian.. Gobi Manchurian is something which nobody will say no for it. It is same case with me and my hubby. Back in India we use to eat every weekend Gobi Manchurian and when ever we use to go to our favourite Chinese restaurant (Mainland China) I use to always make it point to order Gobi Manchurian and chicken momos. I'm yet to try Chinese restaurant here in UK because I'm not suppose to eat out side Chinese for couple of months. I love Chinese food in a restaurant then eating at home but I'm not allowed to eat, so only I cooked Gobi Manchurian and Hakka Noodles at home for our last to last friday's dinner, as usual it was very very delicious. :)
