Crispy Cauliflower Florets With Citrus Salt Recipes

CRISPY OVEN ROASTED CAULIFLOWER

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit. Grease a half sheet baking sheet with 1 tablespoon olive oil. Set aside.
• Place cauliflower on the baking sheet and toss well with olive oil and seasonings using two spoons.
• Arrange the cauliflower florets in one even layer cut side down. Make sure the florets are not touching. Use two pans if needed.
• Roast in the middle rack of your oven for 30 minutes flipping florets 180 degrees halfway through.
• Enjoy immediately alone or with your favorite sauce or grain bowl. I love to dip them in my Vegan Tzatziki Sauce or Green Tahini Sauce.
• Allow any leftovers to fully cool to room temperature before storing or they will steam and get overcooked in your storage container. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to four days. Reheat leftovers in the oven at a high temperature for a brief period of time so they don't get mushy on the inside.

EXTRA CRISPY SPICY FRIED CAULIFLOWER RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Cut the cauliflower in large florets. Transfer to a large bowl and set aside.
• In a small bowl, combine the celery salt, oregano, cumin, onion powder, garlic powder, paprika, cayenne, salt, and pepper. Mix well.
• In a medium bowl, add half of the spice mix to the flour.
• Add the cornstarch and mix.
• In a separate medium bowl, combine the soy milk, apple cider vinegar, and hot sauce. Whisk.
• Pour the remaining spice mix over the cauliflower florets and mix.
• Pour the milk mixture over the cauliflower and mix well until they are coated.
• Cover with plastic wrap and chill for 1 hour minimum.
• Heat the vegetable oil in a large pan until it reaches 350°F (180°C).
• Toss each cauliflower floret in the flour mixture until well-coated, shaking off any excess. Dip them back in the remaining soy milk mixture in the bowl where they marinated, then again in the flour mixture.
• Fry the cauliflower for 4-5 minutes, until golden brown and crispy.
• Drain the pieces on a wire or paper towels. Let cool 5-10 minutes before serving.

CRISPY CAULIFLOWER WITH LEMON AIOLI

Steps:

• For the cauliflower: Preheat a fryer to 350 degrees F, or heat 3 inches oil to 350 degrees F in a Dutch oven or deep skillet. Line a baking sheet with a wire rack.
• Whisk the eggs with the Parmesan in a bowl. Mix the flour and salt in another bowl. Dip the cauliflower in the Parmesan egg mixture, then into the salted flour, then into the fryer. Fry until golden brown, about 5 minutes. Season the cauliflower with salt while still in either the fryer basket or strainer and pour on the prepared wire rack.
• For the lemon aioli: Add the mayonnaise, lemon juice and salt and pepper to taste to a medium bowl and stir to combine. Pour into a serving bowl and garnish with the chives.
• Arrange the crispy cauliflower on a platter. Grate some Parmesan over, then sprinkle with the lemon zest and chives. Serve alongside the lemon aioli.
