1 head fresh cauliflower
1 tsp. salt
1 egg
1 cup milk
1 cup flour
1 TBSP canola oil
canola oil for frying
Wash cauliflower and cut it into bite sized pieces. Place cauliflower
and salt in a saucepan--add enough water to almost cover the
cauliflower. Over medium heat bring water to a boil, then cook until
cauliflower is crisp tender. Drain the cauliflower. In a mixer add egg--
beat. Add milk and 1 TBSP canola oil--beat. Slowly add flour--beat
until smooth. Remove bowl from mixer. Place a frying pan on the
stove--fill it almost half full with canola oil. Turn heat to medium to
heat the oil--dip your finger in water and flick a drop of water into the
hot oil--if the water sizzles loudly, the oil is ready for frying. Dip each
piece of cauliflower into the egg batter and carefully drop into the oil.
Repeat with all cauliflower. Fry cauliflower 3-5 minutes (turning
halfway through frying). Drain finished pieces on paper towels.
