Step 1
Whisk garlic, vinegar, tandoori paste, and 2 tablespoons oil in a large bowl to blend. Add cauliflower and toss to fully coat florets. Marinate at room temperature for at least 1 hour, or cover and chill overnight.
Step 2
Attach deep-fry thermometer to the side of a large heavy pot. Pour in oil to a depth of 1 inch. Heat oil over medium heat to 350°.
Step 3
Place cornstarch in a medium bowl. Working with a few florets at a time, toss cauliflower in cornstarch, then transfer to a coarse-mesh sieve, shaking excess cornstarch back into bowl. Place florets on a rimmed baking sheet.
Step 4
Working in batches, fry florets until light golden and crispy, 3-4 minutes per batch. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to drain. Season with salt and dust with tandoori masala, if desired.
