Tempura Cauliflower
Method
Instructions
Prepare the Cauliflower
Cut the cauliflower into bite-sized florets and set aside.
Make the Tempura Batter
In a large bowl, mix the all-purpose flour, cornstarch, baking powder, and salt. Gradually whisk in the cold water until the batter is smooth and slightly thick.
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).
Fry the Cauliflower
Dip each cauliflower floret into the tempura batter, allowing excess to drip off. Carefully place them in the hot oil and fry until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes. Remove and drain on paper towels.
Prepare the Salad
In a serving bowl, combine the arugula and crumbled blue cheese.
Serve
Serve the tempura cauliflower hot alongside the arugula and blue cheese salad.
