CAULIFLOWER PANKO PAKORAS (BREADED AND BAKED/FRIED)
I found the original recipe on another site with half the spices and reviewers said it was too bland so I'm posting it here to try myself with a little more punch. I also want to try mixing some coconut milk into the batter and frying in peanut oil. If it's worth posting I'll add it but if someone else has an opinion there first I'd love to hear it. :)

Steps:
- 1. Preheat oven to 475°. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, 1/2 cup panko, the garam masala, baking soda, salt, and remaining spices. Whisk in lemon juice and club soda. Set aside.
- 2. In a small bowl, use a clean whisk to beat egg whites until foamy.
- 3. Whisk whites into flour mixture. Using your hands or a spatula, add cauliflower and combine until all florets are coated. Place remaining panko in a medium bowl. Lift florets, 1 at a time, out of batter and toss to coat with panko.
- 4. Place florets on a large nonstick baking sheet coated with oil. Bake until browned and crispy, about 20 minutes.
Tips:
- Choose fresh, firm cauliflower heads for the best results.
- Cut the cauliflower into even-sized florets for even cooking.
- Use a food processor to quickly and easily create the breadcrumb mixture.
- Season the breadcrumb mixture generously with salt, pepper, and other desired seasonings.
- Lightly coat the cauliflower florets in the egg mixture before coating them in the breadcrumb mixture. This will help the breading adhere to the cauliflower.
- Be sure to preheat the oven to the proper temperature before baking the cauliflower. This will help ensure that the cauliflower cooks evenly.
- Bake the cauliflower until it is golden brown and crispy, and the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
- Serve the baked breaded cauliflower immediately with your favorite dipping sauce.
