- 4 cups cauliflower florets
- ½ cup rice flour
- ½ cup all-purpose flour
- 1 egg
- ½ cup chopped spring onions
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- ½ teaspoon ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon salt
- ½ cup water

Instructions
- Place the 4 cups cauliflower florets into a heat-resistant bowl and pour boiling water over them to completely submerge.
- Soak the cauliflower for 10-15 minutes. Heat the oil for frying in a skillet to about 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
- In a bowl, whisk together ½ cup rice flour, ½ cup all-purpose flour, 1 egg, ½ cup chopped spring onions, 1 teaspoon paprika, ½ teaspoon ground cumin, 1 teaspoon salt, and ½ cup water to make a batter that is slightly thinner than pancake batter.
- Remove the soaked cauliflower florets from the water and pat dry. Coat each floret in the batter, then carefully place in the hot oil.
- Fry the cauliflower on medium-high heat till they are golden brown and crisp. Remove the cooked cauliflower from the hot oil and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain.
