minutesIngredients
1 cauliflower washed and cut into small florets
2 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp ground cumin
1 tsp onion powder
1/4 tsp black pepper
1 tsp smoked paprika
150g plain flour
300 ml plant based milk
100g panko breadcrumbs
120g plant butter/spread
200g hot sauce (like buffalo, sriracha, bbq)
Aioli or vegan ranch dressing
Rice to serve if desired
Directions
- Put the flour, plant-based milk, garlic powder, onion powder, cumin, paprika, salt and pepper into a bowl and whisk to a batter
- Pour the panko breadcrumbs into another bowl and rub them between your thumb and fingers to break into slightly smaller breadcrumbs.
- Tip the cauliflower into the batter and toss to coat
- Transfer to the bowl of breadcrumbs, a few pieces at a time, and toss gently until well coated
- Spread the cauliflower pieces over the lined baking trays and bake for 20 minutes
- Meanwhile, melt the dairy-free butter in the microwave and stir in the hot sauce
- After 20 minutes, remove the tray from the oven, pour over the hot sauce and carefully roll the cauliflower around until the pieces are fully coated
- Put the tray back in the oven for 20–25 minutes, until a sharp knife glides into the thickest parts of the cauliflower and the outsides are really golden brown and crispy
- Remove from the oven
Notes
- Garnish with sesame seeds, spring onions, coconut flour or chopped coriander.
- Serve on rice for a dinner dish, or with aioli or vegan creamy dressing as starters or party food.
