Ingredients
Show ingredients
- 600 g cauliflower;
- 150 g flour;
- 150 ml milk;
- 3 eggs;
- 10 ml vegetable oil;
- 100 g fat for frying;
- greens;
- sugar and salt.
Preparation
- Disassemble the cauliflower. To do this, break it into florets or cut it into four pieces.
- Cauliflower contains many beneficial vitamins and microelements that are essential for humans. Therefore, it is very important to retain as many nutrients as possible during the heat treatment of this ingredient. To do this, place the cauliflower in already boiling water and boil it in a pot for no more than 3 minutes. During this time, it should not be fully cooked. It is very important to leave it in a soft state with a slight crunch. Pat it dry with a towel.
- While boiling, you can prepare the batter for the future dish. Separate the egg whites, which should be cooled. In the meantime, whisk the yolks with a pinch of sugar and salt. Add oil, milk, and sifted flour. Chop the available greens.
- Just before frying the cabbage, fold the egg whites, whipped into a stable foam, into the liquid batter. Gently mix to prevent the whites from sinking. Heat the fat to 170°C in a deep dish. Take one piece of boiled cabbage, pierce it with a fork, and dip it into the batter. Then, lower it into the heated fat. Remove it when a delicious crispy crust appears on the cabbage. It is best to take it out with a slotted spoon so that all the fat drains from the prepared dish. Place it on a plate and sprinkle with chopped greens. The cauliflower in batter in a pan is ready. Bon appétit.
