Then put these florets into a microwave-safe bowl and steam them for 4-5 minutes. Let it cool.
Preheat the oven to 204 degrees celsius. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and keep it ready.
Once the florets have cooled down, put them in a ziplock/ plastic bag.
Add in cornflour, all purpose flour, red chilli powder, ginger-garlic paste, soy sauce, and shake the bag so that it mixes well.
Now arrange the florets on the baking sheet in a single layer. Bake them for 20-30 minutes, turning them once half-way through.
Note that these florets should be nice and crisp and should not burn.
Meanwhile, heat oil in a wok/frying pan on a high flame.
