Course: Appetizer

Ingredients
  

Ingredients
  • 1 head cauliflower
  • 1 cup flour
  • 1 tbsp cornstarch
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp cumin
  • Salt & pepper to taste
  • 2 eggs
  • 1/2 cup water
  • Oil for frying

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Start by boiling the cauliflower head. Bring a large pot of water to a boil, add the whole head of cauliflower, and cook until just tender, about 5-7 minutes.
  2. Drain well and let it cool slightly. Once cooled, break the cauliflower into bite-sized florets.
  3. In another bowl, whisk together the eggs and water until well combined.
  4. Add the egg mixture to the dry ingredients and whisk until you have a smooth batter.
  5. Fry the battered cauliflower in batches, being careful not to overcrowd the pan. Fry until golden brown and crispy, about 3-4 minutes per batch.
  6. Remove the cauliflower bites with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels to remove excess oil.
