Nice pics. I’ll try this one. ive always done it only with ginger paste.
A trick I try is to dip the florets in boiling hot water for 10 minutes before dipping them in batter. This makes them softer inside
Thank you,I am sure it would be really soft inside if its dipped for 10 mins in hot water.Thank you for the tip will def do it next time when I make it.
totally agree… cauliflower pakodas are awesome and yummy as snacks.
yes that’s true and I love it.
