Honestly, battered broccoli would probably go hard.

I mean if they HAVE to have one, an easy choice is cauliflower. It's a neutral tasting vegetable that can be turned into mashed paste or other forms. It already finds itself in several recipes and uses.

Other than that, I wish more places in the world did fried zucchini

I went to a restaurant recently that had fried cauliflower in a sesame sauce or something. It was pretty good and I normally don’t like cauliflower.

Satay sauce on cauliflower is awesome

[-] frazorth@feddit.uk 3 points 4 months ago

Cannot disagree more.

I love all sorts of veg, but cauliflower has a very distinct earthy taste that cuts through anything.

Its not neutral. Its depression incarnate.

Sliced into planks it's basically tempura

[-] queermunist@lemmy.ml 16 points 4 months ago

There's a store near me that sells it, and hell yes, throw them in an air fryer and dip em in a spicy sauce. 🤩

Honestly charcoal broccoli with salt and cumin is amazing and people love it at my bbqs

[-] RebekahWSD@lemmy.world 2 points 4 months ago

That sounds so delicious!

[-] Spacehooks@reddthat.com 8 points 4 months ago

Veggie tempura. So yes

Go hard into the bin, alongside my Dad's infamous Boxing Day sprout stir fry.

[-] Emperor@feddit.uk 8 points 4 months ago

A friend of mine slices up and fries the broccoli stalks and swears they're as good as bamboo shoots in a stir fry.

Baked broccoli is amazing. Toss it in some olive oil and salt and pepper and then roast at 400F until the “leaves” start to char.

If you can do this in a wood fired oven, even better

Mushy peas did at least start out as a vegetable.

[-] Emperor@feddit.uk 14 points 4 months ago

Allegedly. That's before they submerged them in melted green crayon.

[-] Diddlydee@feddit.uk 20 points 4 months ago

Potatoes and tomato ketchup. Sorted.

[-] dohpaz42@lemmy.world 19 points 4 months ago

Onions are vegetables and would make for awesome onion rings/blooming onions.

[-] shasta@lemm.ee 15 points 4 months ago

But chips are vegetables

[-] zarathustra0@lemmy.world 10 points 4 months ago

Tbh I have wanted something like this for ages. Is annoying if you want fish and chips and you can't get any fresh veg with it as a palate cleanser.

[-] NigelFrobisher@aussie.zone 7 points 4 months ago

This is how tempura was invented.

[-] njm1314@lemmy.world 3 points 4 months ago

These sad Welsh fucks have never heard of fried pickles
