Happy Wednesday guys! Recipe of the day is Beer Battered Cauliflower – crispy cauliflower bites in beer batter. 🙂
I’m in love with these bites – they’re so easy to make and it takes just a few minutes to cook them. Served with a favourite dip, they’re gone in a couple of minutes. Make sure to serve them hot, otherwise the taste is not the same and they lose their crispy coating.
What you need:
- cauliflower
- flour
- beer
- turmeric
- salt and pepper
Here’s how to make these Crispy Beer Battered Cauliflower Bites
Ingredients:
- 2 small cauliflowers, broken n a florets (you could use less or more and simply make less/more batter)
- around 1/2 a pint of lager
- 4tbsp flour
- 2tsp turmeric
- salt and pepper to taste
Preparation:
- First you need to par boil the cauliflower. Heat a pot with water and once it starts boiling, add the cauliflower for around 3 minutes. Leave on a side and pat dry it gently.
- In a bowl, mix the flour, seasoning and gradually start adding the beer, mixing the batter constantly. Th mixture should resemble to a pancake mixture, not too thick or too thin.
- Now heat a deep frying dish with sunflower oil, at least two-three fingers. Coat the cauliflower florets into the beer batter and place in the heated oil. Be very careful! Make sure you use a really deep dish and do not pour oil to the top, it should be less than half of the dish you’re using.
- Fry the cauliflower for about 3-4 minutes, turning them halfway.
- Place the cooked cauliflower on a plate, covered with kitchen towel to soak any excess oil. Serve with some hot salsa, aioli or any dip you fancy.
Enjoy!
