Instructions
- Make the aioli: combine all of the ingredients in a bowl and set aside or chill before serving.
- Prepare your vegetables as directed in the ingredient list.
- Heat the oven to 250∫F.
- In a deep fryer, heat 12 cups canola oil (or the amount required by your fryer) to 375∫F. Using a strainer over a shallow plate or pie plate, sprinkle cornstarch over the vegetables in batches. Toss to coat. Remove to a baking sheet, shaking off excess cornstarch. Keep each type of vegetable separate from the others; you will be frying and presenting them separately on a platter.
- Drop the vegetables in batches into the hot oil and cook until brown and crispy (1 to 3 minutes). Remove to a baking sheet lined with paper towels. Place the baking sheet in the oven to keep the vegetables hot while you finish frying the rest.
- Arrange on a platter, keeping each type of vegetable separate. Sprinkle with salt and serve with aioli.
