Country Fried Cauliflower

Step 1

Wash and cut cauliflower into thick (1/2") slices* from top to bottom of head (the slice will look like a fan); remove all green leaves and excess root. Leave just enough "root" at bottom to hold the sliced clusters together.

Step 2

Mix together flour, spices, and 1 tbsp parmesan cheese. Dip cauliflower in beaten egg mixture; then coat with flour mixture. Add enough peanut oil to cover bottom of skillet and heat to medium high temperature for frying. Cook cauliflower on both sides until golden brown; do not overcook (2 - 3 minutes each side). Drain on paper towels. Sprinkle on fried cauliflower the remaining 1 tbsp parmesan cheese.

Step 3

Serve as side dish or with remoulade sauce for dipping. Delicious!

Step 4

*Note: If some of the clusters break off into smaller pieces that is fine. Just dip them and fry!
