Beer-Batter Broccoli Bites
Difficulty Level: Easy
One of my favorite side dishes growing up was breaded, fried cauliflower. I thought to try it with another one of my favorite vegetables, broccoli. My question was would the breading work with a beer batter? It did! My family’s vote: this recipe is a keeper.

Ingredients

1 cup flour


1/4 tsp garlic


1/4 tsp onion powder


1/4 tsp pepper


1/4 tsp paprika


1/4 tsp salt


1 cup beer


4 cups frozen broccoli or cauliflower, defrosted


1 cup cornflake crumbs


oil, for frying

Directions

1.  In a large bowl mix flour, spices, and beer. Whisk until smooth. Add the broccoli or cauliflower. Toss until well coated.


 


2.  Place the cornflake crumbs in a small bowl. Dredge each broccoli or cauliflower floret individually in the cornflake crumbs.


 


3.  Heat 2–3 inches of oil in a large, heavy frying pan. Fry in batches for about 3 minutes until golden. Drain on paper towels. Serve with Beer-Infused Ranch Dressing or any other dipping sauce you desire.
