• Soya sauce -3-4 tsp
• Tomato sauce – 2 tbsp

1. In a pan, boil some water with 1/2 tsp salt in it.
2. Add cauliflower florets and cook till it is half done. Drain the water and let the florets cool.
3. Add 2 tsp corn flour, soya sauce and a little bit of water to make a semi thick batter.
4. Heat 3 tbsp of oil in the pan.
5. Dip each cauliflower floret in the batter and put all the florets together in the pan to cook it for about 5 min. Stir continuously to avoid soya sauce sticking to the pan.
