Description

A very munchable vegetarian snack inspired by the Indian sub-continent. Great with a cold beer!

Ingredients

  • ½ whole Cauliflower
  • 1 cup Chickpea Flour
  • ½ cups Milk
  • ¼ cups Whipping Cream
  • ½ teaspoons Ground Cumin
  • ½ teaspoons Ground Coriander
  • 2 teaspoons Fresh Thyme
  • ½ teaspoons Salt
  • 1 pinch Cayenne Pepper (Optional)
  • 3 cups Vegetable Oil

Preparation

Wash and dry the cauliflower. Cut the cauliflower into 2 quarters. Cut into as many 1/4” slices as you can, then separate the rest of the florets into smaller pieces.

Combine the remaining ingredients, except for oil, in a medium bowl. Whisk well until smooth. The batter should be the consistency of pancake batter. Adjust with water or chickpea flour if necessary.

Heat oil in a saucepan (or deep fryer) to 350 F. Dip the cauliflower pieces into the batter, gently shake away the excess batter, and carefully place in the hot oil. Do not overcrowd the pan. Cook until golden, turning the cauliflower occasionally. Drain on paper towels, and repeat with the remaining cauliflower.

Serve with a cold beer, or your favourite beverage.

I worked in a factory cafeteria in the 70’s and they made fried cauliflower. It had a tempura like batter. Delicious. Where do you find the chickpea flour?
