Description
These super crispy deep-fried cauliflower florets are highly addicting and take just 25 minutes to make. These are a delicious appetizer or side dish.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 head cauliflower
- Oil for frying (enough to submerge the cauliflower in)
- Salt
Instructions
- Cut the cauliflower into medium-sized florets, wash, and dry completely.
- Fill about 1/4 of your pot with oil, just enough to submerge the cauliflower in.
- Heat up the oil. You'll know it's ready if you drop a piece of cauliflower in and it starts bubbling.
- Drop a couple of florets at a time into the hot oil, stirring frequently until they turn golden-brown around (about 2-5 minutes)
- Once golden, immediately take them out of the oil and place them on a paper towel to absorb excess oil.
- Serve immediately.
Notes
- Don't overfill your pot with oil.
- Don't overcrowd your pot.
