Steps:
- In a pan, Boil enough water with salt.
- Break or chop the cauliflower in medium sized florets.
- Rinse them well and add them to the boiling water.
- Switch off the flame and let the cauliflower florets be immersed in the water for 10 to 12 minutes.
- Drain the water from the cauliflower florets. In a pan marinate the cauliflower with red chili powder, turmeric powder, ginger-garlic paste, garam masala powder. Mix very well and keep aside for 8 to 10 minutes.
- In another bowl, make a smooth batter with the besan/gram flour, asafoetida, baking soda or baking powder, salt and water.
- Next add carom seeds to the batter and mix well.
- Heat oil in a kadai or deep fryer. You can use any neutral tasting oil with a high smoking point.
- Take each marinated cauliflower and dip in the batter.
- Coat each floret evenly with the batter and add them carefully in the medium hot oil.
- When one side becomes slightly crisp and the batter firms up then turn over with a slotted spoon and continue to fry the other side.
- Fry till the cauliflower fritters are crisp and golden evenly. You will have to turn the pakora a couple of times for even frying.
- With a slotted spoon remove the pakoda and drain as much oil as possible. Then keep them on paper towels to remove excess oil.
- Serve the cauliflower pakoda hot or warm with any green chutney or sauce, sprinkled with chaat masala, lemon juice and chopped coriander leaves. You can also have them with roti or stuff them between bread slices or dinner rolls.

VIJ'S BUTTERMILK PAKORAS
Great tasting pakoras and they look very rustic. I myself use less salt but I will post the recipe as I found it and add my personal changes in brackets. They can be reheated in a 325F oven for about 10-15 minutes if you want to make them in advance. In the fridge they can be kept for 3 days. They can also be frozen and reheated, defrost them first. I like to serve them with thick yogurt, mixed with chopped coriander leaves. Recipe from Vij's restaurant in Vancouver BC.

Steps:
- Wash the cauliflower in a colander; allow to drain for approx 15 minutes (the vegetables need to be very dry otherwise the extra water will make the batter runny).
- Peel and wash the potatoes, cut in half and cut each half in thin slices (I quarter the potato).
- In a large mixing bowl combine the chickpea flour, buttermilk, peppers, coriander, cumin, mango powder, turmeric and salt, using your hands.
- Make sure everything is well combined and that there are no lumps of chickpea flour left.
- Now add the cauliflower, potatoes and the red onion.
- It should be all sticking together.
- To test the right thickness, take a spoonful and drop it from an 8-10 inch height back into the mixing bowl, the ball should remain its shape for a few seconds.
- If too runny add some more chickpea flour, 2 tablespoons at the time and no more then 4.
- Heat the oil, test with a drop of batter, when it floats to the top in a few seconds and is sizzling, the oil is hot enough.
- Drop approx 2-inch balls (they will not be round, and I use two tablespoons to do this) into the oil and fry for approx 2 ½ minutes or until golden brown.
- Drain on paper towels.

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. :)

- Cut the cauliflower into small-ish florets so they are wither bite-sized or slightly smaller. Wash and pat dry.
- Mix together the chickpea flour, salt, turmeric, garlic, ginger and water to make the batter. It should stick to the back of a spoon but not be so thick it doesn't run off at all.
- Put the pieces of cauliflower into the batter and mix well so the pieces of cauliflower are well coated in the batter. Spoon bits in to the gaps if needed.
- Heat some vegetable or other flavorless oil in a small skillet/frying pan - around 1/3 in (1 cm) deep or a little more. Once it is warm at a medium heat, take spoonfuls of the cauliflower and place in the pan (generally 1-2 pieces of cauliflower in each spoonful, depending on size).
