Cauliflower Fritters
- Cauliflower Fritters
- 1 head cauliflower
- Salt
- 2/3 cup sifted cornstarch
- 2/3 cup flour
- 2 eggs
- 3 to 4 cups canola or grapeseed oil
- Prepared romesco or aioli sauce, for dipping, optional.
- 1. Remove core from cauliflower, and separate into bite-size florets.
- 2. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Drop in florets, cook 1 minute, drain in a colander, and place under cold water to cool. Transfer to a towel to dry.
- 3. Sift cornstarch and flour into a large bowl. Whisk eggs with 2/3 cup water. Whisk into flour mixture. Season batter with salt to taste. Place florets in batter, and fold with a large spoon to coat evenly.
- 4. Heat oil in a wok or deep saucepan to 350 degrees. Drop in about one-third of the batter-coated florets. Fry about 10 minutes, until lightly browned. Transfer to paper towel. Repeat with remaining florets.
- 5. To serve, heat oven to 400 degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment, and arrange cauliflower on it. Place in oven, and heat about 8 minutes; dust with salt, and serve. Serve dipping sauce alongside, if desired.
