WHOLE CAULIFLOWER (AIR FRIED)

         WHOLE CAULIFLOWER (AIR FRIED)



I've tried tandoori masala 

Ingredients:

Cauliflower-1 whole

Ginger garlic paste-1 tbsp.

Chilli powder-2 tsp.

Turmeric Powder-1 tsp.

Cumin powder-1tsp.

Coriander powder-1 2 tsp.

Pepper powder-1 tsp.

Curd/Yogurt-2 tbsp.

Rice flour-1 tbsp.

Corn flour-1 tsp.

Lemon juice -2 tsp.

Kasuri Methi-2 tsp. 

Salt- to taste

Oil- 2 tbsp.

Method:

1.Cut the leaves and edges of the cauliflower and keep it ready. 


2.Boil water in a vessel and add turmeric powder and salt.

3.When the water boils,add the whole cauliflower upside-down. 



4.Let it boil for 5 to 10 minutes. Make sure to cook only 50% in the hot water, or else it will start to break into pieces.

5.Remove and keep aside to drain the water(Make sure it is completely dry before applying masala)


6.In a wide pan add all the ingredients listed along with 1 tbsp. of oil and mix to make a paste.


7.Rub the prepared masala paste all over the cauliflower. 

8.Let it marinate for 15-20 mins.(The more you marinate, the more it tastes good)


9.Pre-heat the air fryer @350°- 400°F  for 10 minutes. 

10.Spray some oil and place the cauliflower and cook for 10-15 minutes.(Time differs in every air fryer)


11.Remove and spray some oil and turn each and every side every 5-10 mins until crispy and done.

12. Air-fried cauliflower is lip smacking ,crisp and healthy with less oil.





Note:

●Temperature can be reduced or increased based on the heat produced.

●The same recipe can be done with zero oil(Air fryer) and deep fried method(in pan)

●I felt the food becomes too dry without oil.So added little.

●Apply the masala outside the cauliflower for air frying method and very thin coating inside.(Sometimes inside masala may not be fully cooked if it is a thick paste)

●If you are deep frying, you can apply the masala inside also.
