If you’re looking for a way to prepare cauliflower that is tasty, crispy, and without unnecessary frying, this recipe is the ideal choice. Cauliflower baked in the oven develops a beautiful golden color, a tender interior, and a crispy surface. This method is a great tip for those who want less fat, minimal mess in the kitchen, and yet maximum flavor.

Preparation procedure

  • Divide the cauliflower into smaller florets and rinse in cold water.
  • In a large pot, bring water with a pinch of salt to a boil and briefly cook the larger florets for about 5 minutes. Drain and let them drip dry.
  • Sprinkle the cooled cauliflower with semi-coarse flour and toss so it is coated in a thin layer.
  • In a bowl, whisk the eggs with the sour cream. Add the garlic, pepper, salt, and paprika. Add a little semi-coarse flour so the batter is thicker than pancake batter.
  • Coat each cauliflower floret in the batter and arrange them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  • Bake in an oven preheated to 180–200 °C for roughly 35–40 minutes until golden. You can turn them once during baking.
