Cauliflower Tempura with Sweet Chilli Sauce | Make Crunchy Tempura At Home | The Plate

tempura batter mix

🥗Healthier: chickpea flour

💰Cheaper: all-purpose flour + cornstarch

Chickpea flour adds protein while all-purpose flour + cornstarch provides a similar texture.

Cut cauliflower into bite-sized florets.

Prepare the tempura batter by mixing corn flour, all purpose flour, pepper powder, and soda water until just combined.

Heat oil in a deep pot over medium-high heat until shimmering.

Dip each cauliflower floret into the tempura batter, allowing excess to drip off.

Carefully lower the battered cauliflower into the hot oil in batches.

Fry until golden brown and crispy, about 3-4 minutes per batch.

Remove the tempura with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.
