Time 30m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 cauliflower
flour, for dusting
vegetable oil
1 small piece potato, peeled, optional
½ a bunch fresh flat-leaf parsley (15g), leaves picked
1 lemon
BATTER
1 teaspoon cumin seeds
2 teaspoons black mustard seeds
2-3 dried red chillies
1 teaspoon black peppercorns
200 g self-raising flour
½ teaspoon turmeric
350 ml cold beer

Steps:

  • First make your batter. Smash up the cumin and mustard seeds, chillies and peppercorns in a pestle and mortar until you have a powder. Put the flour into a mixing bowl and stir in the ground spices and the turmeric.
  • Pour in most of the beer and whisk gently. Check the consistency - you want it to be the thickness of double cream. If it's too thick, whisk in the rest of the beer. Don't worry too much about having little lumps in the batter, as they'll just become nice crunchy bits when you start frying. Season with sea salt and put to one side.
  • Trim the bottom off the stalk and break the cauliflower into bite-sized florets. Slice up the stalk into 2cm pieces - this way it will all cook at the same rate. Place the cauliflower pieces in a bowl and dust with a little flour.
  • Pour the oil into a deep saucepan - you want it to be about 10-12cm deep - and heat it to 180°C. If you don't have a thermometer don't worry, just drop a piece of potato into the oil. When it floats to the surface and starts to sizzle, the oil will be at the right temperature so remove the potato from the pan.
  • Shake any excess flour off the cauliflower. One by one, dip the pieces into the beer batter, then carefully place them in the hot oil, moving them away from you as you do so. Make sure you stand back so you don't get splashed. It's best to fry them in batches so you don't overcrowd the pan (but serve them as soon as each batch is ready).
  • Each time a batch of cauliflower is nearly ready, add some battered parsley leaves to the pan and fry for 40 seconds (you want to serve them scattered over the fritters). Fry the pieces gently, turning them a couple of times with a slotted spoon.
  • When they're browned and crisp, lift them out of the oil, allowing any excess to drip back into the pan, and drain on kitchen paper. Dust with sea salt and squeeze over a little lemon juice.

Categories     One Dish Meal

Time 55m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

4 cups cauliflower
1 tablespoon milk
1 (10 ounce) can cream of chicken soup
1/4 cup mayonnaise
1/2 cup grated cheddar cheese
1 teaspoon curry powder
2 tablespoons melted butter
1 cup cracker crumb

Steps:

  • Cook cauliflower in boiling salted water until tender-crisp.
  • Drain.
  • Put cauliflower in an oven-safe casserole dish.
  • Combine milk, soup, mayonnaise, cheese and curry powder.
  • Pour over cauliflower.
  • Combine butter and cracker crumbs.
  • Sprinkle over cauliflower.
  • Bake at 350 degrees F for 30 minutes.

Tips:

  • Prep the cauliflower: Start by breaking the cauliflower into florets and pulsing them in a food processor until they resemble coarse couscous. This will help them bind together better in the fritters.
  • Use a flavorful curry blend: The curry blend is what gives these fritters their delicious flavor, so be sure to use a good quality one. A good option is to make your own blend using ground cumin, coriander, turmeric, and garam masala.
  • Add some heat: If you like things spicy, you can add some chopped chili peppers to the fritter batter. Just be sure to taste the batter before frying to make sure it's not too spicy for your liking.
  • Use a nonstick pan: This will help prevent the fritters from sticking and burning. If you don't have a nonstick pan, you can grease a regular pan with cooking spray.
  • Fry the fritters in batches: Don't overcrowd the pan, or the fritters will not cook evenly. Fry them in batches, and make sure to flip them halfway through cooking so that they brown on both sides.
  • Serve with your favorite dipping sauce: These fritters are delicious served with a variety of dipping sauces, such as tamarind sauce, yogurt sauce, or chutney.

Conclusion:

These curried cauliflower fritters are a delicious and healthy snack or appetizer. They are easy to make and can be customized to your liking. So next time you're looking for something different to try, give these fritters a try. You won't be disappointed!
