Ingredients:

  • 1 head of cauliflower
  • Salt, to taste
  • A pinch of nutmeg

For the Batter:

  • 50g wheat flour
  • A dash of sweet paprika powder
  • 2 eggs
  • 40g butter, melted
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • A bit of grated nutmeg
  • A pinch of salt

Preparation:

Prep the Cauliflower:

  • Rinse the cauliflower head thoroughly under cold water.
  • Carefully break it down into florets.
  • In a large pot of boiling water seasoned with salt and a pinch of nutmeg, cook the cauliflower florets until al dente. This should take about 5-7 minutes.
  • Remove the florets with a slotted spoon and let them steam dry or pat dry with a kitchen towel to remove excess moisture.

Prepare the Batter:

  • In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs and melted butter until frothy.
  • Add in the minced garlic, salt, paprika, a touch of nutmeg, and gradually sift in the wheat flour. Stir everything together until you achieve a smooth, consistent batter.

Coat the Cauliflower:

  • Once the cauliflower florets have cooled slightly and are manageable to touch, dip and roll them in the prepared batter. Make sure each floret is evenly coated.

Bake:

  • Preheat your oven to 190°C (375°F) with the setting on both upper and lower heat.
  • Arrange the batter-coated cauliflower florets on a greased baking tray, ensuring they are spaced out evenly.
  • Bake in the preheated oven on the middle rack for about 20 minutes, or until the florets are golden brown and crispy.

Serve:

  • Once done, remove the tray from the oven and let the cauliflower cool for a few minutes before serving. This allows the florets to crisp up even further.
