Instructions

To Bake the Cauliflower

  1. Preheat the oven for 425° F/220° C. Line a baking sheet or baking dish with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, add the dry ingredients for the batter. Mix well, then add in the wet ingredients and mix until smooth.
  3. Add in the cauliflower and toss to coat. The batter should be just thick enough so that it coats the cauliflower well, and it's going to be enough for the cauliflower. The batter keeps thickening as it sits, so you'll want to mix it in pretty quickly.
  4. Transfer the cauliflower florets to the lined baking sheet, and bake for 30 minutes, or until cauliflower inside is cooked. Meanwhile, make your gochujang sauce.

To Make the Gochujang Sauce

  1. Add the gochujang, soy sauce, maple syrup, salt, and vinegar to a large skillet on medium heat and mix well.
  2. Mix the cornstarch in the 1/4 cup of water, and add to the simmering sauce mixture and mix well. Take off the heat as soon as the sauce thickens.
  3. Add your baked cauliflower to the skillet, and toss well to coat. Garnish with some green onion, or sesame seeds if you like. Serve with rice or noodles or in lettuce cups.

Notes

  • Substitutes
  • Gochujang: use other Asian chili sauces
  • Rice flour: use all purpose flour
  • Variation: make this with pressed and torn 14 oz extra firm tofu 
  • Make sure you have your cauliflower ready to go before mixing up the batter. The batter thickens quickly, so you want to toss the cauliflower in immediately.
  • When you spread the cauliflower onto the baking sheet, do it in a single layer, and make sure the wings aren't touching each other, or they will stick together.
  • Store leftovers in a covered container in the refrigerator. They will keep for up to 3 days. Reheat in a 350° F oven or on the stovetop. Do not microwave, because the batter will be mushy if you do that.
