INGREDIENTS

1 Whole Cauliflower
2 Tbsp All purpose Flour
3 Tbsp Corn flour
1 Tbsp Ginger garlic paste
1/2 tsp Turmeric powder
1 Tbsp Chilli powder
1/2 Tbsp Coriander powder
1/2 Tbsp Pepper powder
Salt as required
Cooking oil for deep frying

Method
• Bring water to a boil in a vessel and add turmeric powder and salt.

• Add the cauliflower florets into a boiling water and turn off the flame. Let it blanch it for 10 minutes, drain the florets and keep it aside

• In a large bowl add the blanched cauliflower florets, ginger garlic paste, red chilli powder, coriander powder, pepper powder, red chilli flakes, handful of chopped coriander leaves, salt and juice of half lemon.

• Mix it gently. Make sure all the florets are covered well with the spices.

• Now sprinkle All purpose flour and corn flour, mix again until the florets are coated well with the flour.

• Heat oil in a kadai, when the oil becomes medium hot carefully place the cauliflower florets in the hot oil. You don’t want to overcrowd the pan, so you’ll likely need to work in batches.

• Fry the cauliflower until it becomes golden brown and crisp.

• Remove the fried cauliflower florets with a slotted spoon, and place them on kitchen paper towels to absorb the excess oil. Fry the remaining cauliflower in batches.

• Finally, garnish with fried curry leaves and cashew nuts. Enjoy hot for the best taste.

Tips

• Do not add too many cauliflower florets at a time in oil for frying. Oil temperature will go down and you will not get a crispy exterior layer. So, to maintain the temperature of oil, add in batches and ensure there is enough oil for deep frying. I fried in 5 batches.

• Do not add any additional water since the water content in cauliflower will be more than enough for the masala to bind to it.
