Coliflor frita

Ingredientes

• 2 cups unsweetened plant milk
• 1 tbsp apple cider vinegar
• 1 large head of cauliflower
• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 2 tbsp cornstarch
• 1 tsp baking powder
• 1 tsp garlic powder
• 1 tsp onion powder
• 1 tsp salt
• ½ tsp ground black pepper
• Oil for frying (I used canola oil)

Preparación

1. 1

   Mix the plant milk and vinegar in a jar or bowl until well combined. Let the mixture rest at room temperature for at least 5 minutes. After this time, the milk will thicken and curdle.

2. 2

   Wash and cut the cauliflower head into bite-sized pieces or florets.

3. 3

   Mix all the dry ingredients in a large bowl (flour, cornstarch, baking powder, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper) until well combined.

4. 4

   Add the milk and vinegar mixture to the large bowl and stir again. Set aside.

5. 5

   Heat the oil in a large skillet until it reaches 350°F (180°C).

6. 6

   Dip each floret into the batter and coat evenly. Shake off the excess and fry the florets for 3-5 minutes or until golden brown and crispy.

7. 7

   Drain the pieces on a wire or paper towels. Let them cool for at least 5 minutes before serving.

8. 8

   Serve your fried cauliflower recipe immediately with vegan protein like baked tofu, seitan, tempeh, or even fried tofu. You can also serve it with your favorite sauce.

9. 9

   Keep the leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days.
