Method

Fried Cauliflower

  1. 1

    Prepare Cauliflower

    Cut the cauliflower into small florets and set aside.

  2. 2

    Make Batter

    In a bowl, combine flour, cornstarch, salt, pepper, and water to create a smooth batter.

  3. 3

    Fry Cauliflower

    Heat oil in a deep pan over medium-high heat. Dip each cauliflower floret into the batter, allowing excess to drip off, and fry until golden brown. Remove and drain on paper towels.
