• Add 1/4 inch olive oil to a large skillet and heat over medium-high heat until shimmering.
• Working with the larger pieces first, add the cauliflower to the flour and turn to coat. Shake off the excess, then dip in the egg to coat. Let the excess egg drip off, then coat thoroughly in the panko. Fry the cauliflower in batches to avoid overcrowding, turning once, until golden brown on both sides, 6 to 8 minutes total. Transfer to the lined plate to drain and sprinkle with salt. Repeat with the remaining smaller pieces of cauliflower (leave out any tiny crumbly pieces).

Bring to a simmer and cook, stirring occasionally, until the flavors combine and the liquid begins to reduce slightly, 10 to 15 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Keep warm over low heat until ready to use.
• For the cauliflower: Meanwhile, trim the base of the core from the cauliflower, then cut the head into 1-inch-thick slices (steaks). Cut any florets that fall off into 1-inch pieces. Sprinkle 1/4 teaspoon each salt and pepper over both sides of the cauliflower.
• Whisk together the flour, garlic powder, 1 teaspoon salt and 2 teaspoons black pepper in a shallow bowl. Whisk together the milk and eggs in a second shallow bowl. Whisk together the breadcrumbs and Parmesan in a third shallow bowl. One at a time, dredge the cauliflower steaks and 1-inch pieces first in the flour mixture, then in the egg mixture and then into the breadcrumb mixture, pressing firmly to coat. Transfer the breaded cauliflower to a rack on a rimmed baking sheet.
• Set another rack on a rimmed baking sheet. Heat about 1 inch of vegetable oil in a deep cast-iron skillet or Dutch oven over high heat until a deep-frying thermometer registers 350 degrees F.

Transfer the finished cauliflower to the rack on the baking sheet and immediately sprinkle lightly with salt.
• Preheat the broiler.
• Add the cauliflower to a 9-by-13-inch baking dish in a single layer or slightly overlapping. Pour the tomato sauce over the top and sprinkle with the mozzarella. Broil until the cheese is golden brown and bubbling, 3 to 5 minutes. Garnish with torn basil leaves. Serve hot.
