These crispy Parmesan cauliflower bites are a delightful snack or appetizer, perfect for any occasion.
Heat the oil in a fryer or deep pot to 375°F.
Use a thermometer to ensure the oil reaches the correct temperature for optimal frying.
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, and salt.
Ensure the mixture is smooth and well-combined for even coating.
In another bowl, combine the flour, Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, thyme, oregano, paprika, cayenne pepper, and black pepper.
Mix thoroughly to evenly distribute the spices and cheese.
Dip each cauliflower floret into the egg mixture, ensuring it is fully coated.
Shake off any excess egg mixture before moving to the next step.
Transfer the coated florets into the flour mixture and toss to coat evenly.
Press the coating onto the florets gently to ensure it adheres well.
Fry the coated florets in batches for 4-6 minutes or until golden brown.
Avoid overcrowding the fryer to maintain the oil temperature.
Remove the fried florets and drain on paper towels. Lightly salt them while still hot.
Salting immediately after frying enhances the flavor.
