Ingredients

Servings

Crispy Cauliflower

  • ½ to 1 head cauliflower
  • ½ cup flour 60 g
  • 2 large egg whisked
  • 1 cup panko breadcrumbs 50 g
  • ¼ tsp salt
  • ¼ tsp black pepper

Sticky Orange Sauce

  • 1 Tbsp sesame oil 15 mL
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 Tbsp ginger fresh grated
  • cup orange juice 160 mL
  • ¼ cup rice vinegar 60 mL
  • ¼ cup honey 60 mL
  • 2 Tbsp soy sauce 30 mL
  • 2 Tbsp orange zest
  • 1 Tbsp cornstarch can sub arrowroot starch, dissolved in 1 Tbsp cold water

Instructions

  1. Prep: Preheat oven to 400°F (204°C). Arrange workspace, placing flour, egg, and panko in separate bowls. Mix salt and pepper into panko.
  2. Shake & Bake: Cut cauliflower into bite-sized florets. Working in batches, coat the florets in flour, then egg, then breadcrumbs. Set on a parchment paper-lined baking sheet. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes, or until crispy.
  3. Sauce: Set a small saucepan over medium heat and add the sesame oil, garlic, and ginger. Cook for 2 minutes, until fragrant, then add remaining “Sauce” ingredients except the cornstarch mixture. Whisk to combine and bring to a simmer. While whisking, slowly pour in the cornstarch mixture. It should thicken quite quickly; if not, continue simmering until thick.
  4. Assemble: Drizzle sauce over the baked cauliflower and gently toss to evenly coat. Serve cauliflower over warm rice.
