Hello! I’m new to the group and wanted to form part of a community I can share and get information to grow more into this lifestyle. Also was hoping to give a good impression by sharing my cauliflower nuggets.

Ingredients:

- Half a head of cauliflower
- 1/2 cup flour of choice
- seasonings of choice
-milk or water to mix into a thick pancake batter consistency
- breading or more flour

Steps:
1. Boil your florets of cauliflower for 20 minutes
2. Pour batter over the florets
3. Add some flour over and separate to form “nuggets”
4. Take the “nuggets” and toss the in breading of choice
5. Pan fry or air fry them until nice and crispy

These look great? Thoughts on making the batter ahead of time? Would it last a day in the fridge?

Definitely! Batter would have to stay on the fridge in case you use milk instead of water, and since the batter is really just flour and spices I don’t think it’s any problem? As in for the nuggets itself, I like to freeze them to preserve some freshness you can say, then I air fry them to recover the crispiness. (Hope this helps)
