Cauliflower in crumbs

I grew up eating cauliflower prepared this way and this  was one of my favorite dishes as a kid. It was fried and crunchy - what's not to love? I now cook it for the kids and steal few pieces of the pan as soon as it is done. It is an easy recipe to make.
1 cauliflower cut up in florets
1 egg
1/2-3/4 cup of bread crumbs or corn flake crumbs or a combo  of both
1 tsp of favorite seasoning Italian or herb de Provence
salt and pepper
oil for frying about 1/3 cup
Cut up the cauliflower  into florets and toss into boiling slightly salted water. Cook for about 3-5 min, it should still be firm and al dente. While the cauliflower is in the pot,  scramble the egg in the bowl. With a slotted spoon remove the florets from the water to  the bowl with eggs and stir to coat them in the egg. Sprinkle with salt and pepper and seasoning, then  add the crumbs to coat the florets, stirring and mixing to cover with crumbs somewhat evenly. This is not an easy task to accomplish, so not to worry, if it is not completely coated. Heat up a large frying pan with oil. The florets are thirsty for oil and will absorb a lot. Fry on a medium to high heat for another 5-7 min till cauliflower is tender if pierced with knife. I have used different seasonings for this dish, most anything goes well here, experiment away.
