Preheat the oven
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Prepare the cauliflower
Cut the cauliflower head into bite-sized florets.
Boil the cauliflower
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the cauliflower florets and cook for 3-4 minutes or until slightly tender. Drain the cauliflower and set it aside to cool.

Prepare the coating
In a shallow dish, whisk the eggs. In another shallow dish, mix the breadcrumbs, flour, and the remaining salt.
Coat the cauliflower
Dip each stuffed cauliflower floret into the beaten eggs, then coat it with the breadcrumb mixture, pressing gently to adhere.
