Fried Buffalo Cauliflower
Method
Preparation and Cooking
- 1
Prepare the Cauliflower
Cut the cauliflower into bite-sized florets and set aside.

Make the Batter
In a large bowl, combine the flour, cornstarch, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Gradually whisk in the cold water until a smooth batter forms.
- 3
Heat the Oil
In a deep frying pan or pot, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).

Coat the Cauliflower
Dip each cauliflower floret into the batter, allowing any excess to drip off.

Fry the Cauliflower
Carefully place the battered cauliflower florets into the hot oil, frying in batches until golden brown and crispy, about 5-7 minutes. Use a slotted spoon to remove them and drain on paper towels.
