Notes

  1. Broil helps to get the fry texture so don't skip it. Can broil for some more minutes if you need it crispier
  2.  The amount of corn flour may vary depending on the cauliflower size so adjust accordingly
  3. Grease the oil helps cauliflower to sticking to the foiL
  4. After turning the oven to broil, keep monitoring frequently to avoid burnt texture
  5.  Avoid overlapping for even cooking
  6. If there is excess moisture, they turn out to be sticky. So avoid adding much water, also grease the foil throughout to avoid sticking
  7.  Alternatively, you can also deep fry them in oil
  8. Ajwain can be added while marinating cauliflower
  9.  Chat Masala or any spice powder can be added for taste
  10.  cooking time vary depends on the size of the cauliflower florets
  11.  Sprinkle some water if you think the flour and cauliflower is not binding properly. I didn't use, moisture in the cauliflower was enough
  12. Strain the cauliflower well and avoid overcooking for crispy texture
