Crispy Cauliflower Ingredients

Method

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Cauliflower

    Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Wash and cut the cauliflower into bite-sized florets.

  2. 2

    Make the Batter

    In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, cornstarch, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add the water, whisking until you achieve a smooth batter.

  3. 3

    Coat the Cauliflower

    Dip each cauliflower floret into the batter, ensuring they are evenly coated.

  4. 4

    Fry the Cauliflower

    In a large pot or deep fryer, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Once hot, carefully add the battered cauliflower florets in batches, frying until golden brown and crispy, about 3-4 minutes. Remove and drain on paper towels.

  5. 5

    Make the Sauce

    In a separate bowl, mix the buffalo sauce with agave syrup until well combined.

  6. 6

    Combine and Serve

    Toss the crispy cauliflower in the buffalo sauce mixture until evenly coated. Serve immediately.
