Ingredients
- 1 large cauliflower segmented into bite-sized florets
- 120 grams of flour substitute with gluten-free flour if necessary
- 2 eggs lightly beaten
- 120 grams of panko breadcrumbs opt for gluten-free if required
- 60 grams of Parmigiano Reggiano finely grated
- 15 milliliters of Creole seasoning
- Sufficient oil for deep frying
Instructions
- Preparation of Cauliflower: Commence by thoroughly washing the cauliflower. Cut it into florets that are uniform in size to ensure even cooking. Set aside.
- Coating Process: Initiate the breading sequence by placing the flour in a shallow dish. In a separate dish, prepare the beaten eggs. In a third dish, combine the panko breadcrumbs, grated Parmigiano Reggiano, and Creole seasoning. Each floret should first be dredged in flour, ensuring it is lightly coated. Subsequently, dip the floret into the beaten eggs, followed by a thorough coating in the breadcrumb mixture.
- Frying: Pour oil into a deep frying pan and preheat it to approximately 180°C (350°F). Fry the breaded cauliflower florets in batches to avoid overcrowding, which can lead to uneven cooking. Each batch should be fried until golden brown and crisp, which typically takes about 3 to 4 minutes.
- Draining: Once fried, remove the florets from the oil and let them drain on paper towels to eliminate excess oil.
- Serving: Serve the bites warm, either as they are or accompanied by your preferred dipping sauce.
