Heat oil in deep-fryer to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
Deep fry the potato sticks until crispy and golden brown, about 4 minutes. Remove, and drain on a paper towel-lined plate. Deep fry the florets in two batches until golden brown, drain on paper towels. Allow the cauliflower to cool until it's just warm.
Stir together tahini and olive oil in a large bowl until smooth. Mix in yogurt, lemon juice, vinegar, cumin, salt, and pepper. Add cauliflower, arugula, and lettuce, toss to coat with the dressing. Place salad onto serving plates, and sprinkle with the potato sticks.
