Cauliflower leaves are as delicious as florets, and here is a glorious way to eat them. In the crispiest batter, with two out-of-this-world sauces. Addictive.

Ingredients

1 Head of Cauliflower

100g Plain Flour

40g Cornflour

1 Tsp Cumin Seeds

½ Tsp Baking Powder

150ml Sparkling Water, Very Cold

Handful of Chives

Vegetable Oil

100g Sour Cream

50g Mayonnaise

125g Blue Cheese

35g Butter

60ml Hot Sauce

1 Tbsp Honey

Method

Cut the leaves off your cauliflower, saving the head for another occasion.

Make your blue cheese sauce. Pop your sour cream and mayonnaise into a bowl and crumble in your blue cheese. Give it a good whisk until you have a smooth sauce. Set aside.

Make your buffalo sauce. Melt your butter in a small saucepan. Once melted, add your hot sauce and honey. Whisk until you have a smooth, vibrant sauce that has thickened slightly. Keep it warm.

Get your oil heating up – fill a large saucepan a third of the way with vegetable oil and gently bring it up to 180°C/354°F.

Pour your flour, cornflour, cumin seeds, 1 tsp of salt and baking powder into a bowl and stir to combine. Add your cold water and whisk briefly to form a batter – it doesn't need to be totally smooth.

Dip your cauliflower leaves one at a time into your batter, then carefully place them into the hot oil. Fry for 3 mins or so until crisp and golden. Drain on a plate lined with kitchen towel and repeat with your remaining leaves.

Place your crispy cauliflower leaves onto a plate along with a bowl of blue cheese sauce. Drizzle with buffalo sauce and sprinkle with chopped chives, then serve.
