INSTRUCTIONS
Cut away the thick stem at the base of the cauliflower and remove the
green leaves. Break the florets off the center core and cut the core
into 1" cubes. Wash the florets and cubes under cold running water.
In a 3 to 4 qt enameled or stainless steel saucepan, bring 1 qt of
water and the salt to a boil over high heat. Drop in the cauliflower
and cook briskly, uncovered, for 10 minutes, or until the pieces are
tender but still somewhat resistant to the point of a small, sharp
knife. Drain in a sieve or colander. In a heavy 10" to 12" skillet
with a deep frying thermometer or in an electric skillet, heat 1" or
2" of oil until it reaches a temperature of 375F. Pat the cauliflower
completely dry with paper towels, and a dozen or so pieces at a time,
fry them in the hot oil for about 15 minutes, or until golden brown on
all sides. As they brown, remove them with a slotted spoon and drain
them on paper towels. They may be served hot or at room temperature
covered with taratoor. From Gemini's MASSIVE MealMaster collection at
