Ingredients

For the Cauliflower:

• • 1 large cauliflower, cut into steaks
  • 1/2 red pepper, diced

• • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon Provençal herbs
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried garlic

• 1/3 teaspoon black pepper
• 20 g vegetable oil

For the Egg Coating:

• • 2 eggs
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 100 g (about 3/4 cup) flour

• 1/2 teaspoon paprika
• 1/2 teaspoon dried garlic

Directions

1. 1. Prepare the Cauliflower:
      • • Cut the cauliflower into thick steaks, about 1 inch (2.5 cm) wide.
        • Dice the red pepper and set it aside.
        • Season the cauliflower steaks with salt, Provençal herbs, dried garlic, and black pepper.

       

      • Drizzle with vegetable oil to coat evenly.
   2. Prepare the Egg Coating:
      • • In a bowl, whisk the eggs with 1/4 teaspoon of salt.

       

      • In a separate dish, combine the flour, paprika, and dried garlic.
   3. Coat the Cauliflower Steaks:
      • • Dip each cauliflower steak into the egg mixture, ensuring it is fully coated.

       

      • Dredge the egg-coated steak in the seasoned flour, pressing lightly to ensure an even coating.
   4. Cook the Cauliflower:
      • • Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat.

       

      • Fry the cauliflower steaks for 3–4 minutes on each side until golden brown and crispy.
      • Add the diced red pepper to the skillet for the last 2 minutes of cooking to soften slightly.

1. 1. Serve:
      • Transfer the cooked cauliflower steaks to a plate lined with paper towels to drain any excess oil.
      • Serve hot with your favorite dipping sauce or as a side dish.
