  • Spiced Cauliflower with Jasmine Rice & Cilantro-Yogurt Sauce
    Spiced Cauliflower with Jasmine Rice & Cilantro-Yogurt Sauce Tonight, we’re serving up a delectable take on a classic Indian cauliflower dish with Chinese influences: gobi manchurian. A blend of warm spices, including cumin, coriander and turmeric, lends vibrant flavor to our pan-fried cauliflower, while a coating of rice flour gives it an irresistibly crispy surface. This dish comes together with a twist: after crisping the cauliflower, we’re adding sweet chili sauce, creating another layer of bright flavor. Served with jasmine rice and a cooling yogurt sauce, it all makes for incredibly complex, satisfying vegetarian fare.

  • 1 Fried Cauliflower with Za'atar Yogurt Dipping Sauce Cauliflower Haters
    Fried Cauliflower with Za’atar Yogurt Dipping Sauce Cauliflower haters, pay attention. We know. This snowy head of bland crunchy stuff is low on your list. Too many plates of cauliflower derived “mashed potatoes” or pretend pizza crusts have passed your way. But listen: if you like anything fried, this dish is worth the experiment. A quick battered fry in hot oil, sprinkled with salt immediately after, and then dipped in an incredibly flavorful yogurt sauce should be enough to bring you to the other side. And if you’re already a fan … wait, where did you go? Ah, you’re already heating the oil. Good move. Ingredients 6 to 8 cups vegetable oil, or enough to fill your pot to a depth of 2 inches 1 cup full-fat Greek yogurt 3 tablespoons water 1 1/2 teaspoons za’atar spice mix 3/4 teaspoon sugar 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt, plus more for sprinkling 1/4 cup fresh mint leaves, finely chopped 1 to 2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon 1/2 cup self-rising flour 1 teaspoon turmeric 2/3 cup light-bodied beer 1 head cauliflower (2¼ pounds), cut into small florets Special equipment: deep-fry thermometer Directions Set a baking rack into a rimmed baking sheet and place by the stove. Clip a deep-fry thermometer to the side of a Dutch oven. Pour in the oil and turn the heat to medium-high. Bring the oil up to 360 degrees, about 15-20 minutes. Meanwhile, in a small bowl, mix the yogurt, water, za’atar spice mix, sugar, salt, mint and lemon juice together.

  • Fried Cauliflower with Tahini Sauce
    Fried Cauliflower with Tahini Sauce a recipe from www.maureenabood.com The tahini sauce here is something special. I think of it as an adult version of peanut butter. Note that if you’d rather not make, or eat, the cauliflower fried, you can eat it blanched, with the tahini sauce, and that tastes darn good too. For the cauliflower: 3 tablespoons salt 1 head cauliflower 3 cups canola oil For the tahini sauce: ½ cup tahini (well-stirred before measuring) 1 garlic clove, minced (optional) 1 teaspoon salt ¼ cup water ¼ cup freshly squeezed lemon juice 1 tablespoon chopped flat-leaf parsley To prepare the cauliflower, core the head by cutting at an angle around the core. Wash the cauliflower, then break off florets, about 2-3 inches in size. Blanch the cauliflower: in a large pot, bring 8 cups of water to boil. Add 3 tablespoons salt (this will give flavor to the cauliflower) and return to boil. Add the cauliflower and cook for three minutes, just until the florets are al dente, stirring once or twice. Drain and spread out on a towel to cool and dry, about 45 minutes. The florets must be completely dry before frying. In a medium pot, heat the oil (1 ½ inches deep) to 375 degrees. Fry the cauliflower in batches of 5 or 6 at a time. Add the florets to the hot oil, which will bubble up rapidly all around the cauliflower. Fry until crisp and golden brown. Remove with a slotted spoon and place on a paper towel to absorb the oil.
