Bang Bang Cauliflower

This is like Cauliflower popcorn! Try and cut the cauliflower into bite sized pieces as they will cook and crisp up better. Sometimes I just add crispy chilli oil instead of making the sauce.

This is a great side dish or could also be a great nibble for when guests come over.

Ingredients:

1/2 cup plain flour

1 tsp paprika

1 tsp garlic powder

200ml milk

1/2 cauliflower; cut into bite sizes florets

1/4 cup - 1/2 cup Panko breadcrumbs

1 tsp sesame seeds

1 red chilli; finely chopped and seeds removed if you want less heat

4 spring onions/eschallots; finely chopped

For the sauce

80g sweet chilli sauce

1 lime; juiced

Method:

Heat oven 200. C

Line a baking tray with baking paper.

In a bowl add flour, paprika and garlic powder.

Whisk in milk until it forms a batter.

In a shallow dish, add breadcrumbs.

Toss cauliflower pieces in batter then breadcrumbs then place on oven tray.

Cook for 30 mins.

Meanwhile mix the sauce ingredients.

Put cooked cauliflower in a large bowl, add sauce and toss.

Place in serving bowl and sprinkle with red chilli, sesame seeds and eschallots.
