Ingredients

1 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup water
1 egg
1 teaspoon light soy sauce, or to taste
1 pinch salt to taste
vegetable oil for frying
½ head cauliflower, broken into florets
1 (8 ounce) can pineapple chunks in juice
½ cup tomato sauce
2 tablespoons water
1 teaspoon cornstarch

Steps:

Beat flour, water, and egg together in a bowl to make batter. Stir in soy sauce and salt.
Heat oil to a depth of 1/2 inch in a deep-fryer or large saucepan. Dip cauliflower in batter and fry in hot oil until lightly browned, 2 to 3 minutes. Drain on paper towels.
Combine pineapple chunks and juice with tomato sauce in a small pot to make sauce; bring to a boil.
Mix water and cornstarch in a small bowl until dissolved. Pour into sauce; stir until thickened, 3 to 5 minutes. Serve sauce alongside fried cauliflower.
