  • Has anyone fried cauliflower?

    In some restraunts when you order calimari they serve it with breaded fried veggies like broccoli or cauliflower. Has anyone tried dipping these veggies in egg then parmesan and fried them? I think I may try that soon.

    Never thought of that but it sounds really good. Some people used crushed pork rinds to coat before frying. I haven't tried that one either.

      I fry it quite often, though I haven't tried frying it in breading - - it's quite delicious fried as is and sprinkling with salt when it's fresh out of the pan.

          Fried veggies are great! I love zucchini sliced lengthwise and fried in whatever coating your Atkins level allows. Cauliflower would need to be blanched before frying, I think... or it might not cook through.

            Sounds like a terrific idea - Let us know how it turns out.

            Sometimes i fry GRATED cauliflower (usually w/ onions & garlic). It tastes good on it's own or i bake it as a veggie pizza crust w/ an egg and some baking powder and then add sauce/ cheese (or white pizza > cheese + vegetables & herbs sans sauce). Sometimes i add a few eggs and grated cheese even some other grated vegetables and make a crustless kind of soufflee out of it (it's fine cheeseless too).
            Bottom line: fried grated cauliflower tastes great but i've never fried whole flowerets.
