Ingredients quick view

1 medium cauliflower, cut into florets
2 cups vegetable oil (for frying)
1/2 cup tahini
1/4 cup water (for tahini sauce)
1 clove garlic, minced
1 tablespoon lemon juice
Salt and pepper to taste

Tips quick view

Ensure the oil is hot enough before frying to achieve a crispy texture.

Do not overcrowd the pan when frying, as this can reduce the oil temperature and lead to soggy cauliflower.
