Instructions
- Cut the cauliflower into bite-sized florets.
- Then, mix the rice flour, chickpea flour, salt, and water in a bowl. One by one, start coating your cauliflower florets in the wet mixture.
- Then, transfer the cauliflower florets to the breadcrumbs bowl and coat with breadcrumbs until fully covered.
- Leave the coated florets aside, and prepare the Hoisin Sauce by combining all the ingredients in a cooking pan (except for the corn flour and water), and bring to a gentle simmer.
- Then add the corn flour slurry (corn flour combined with water) and keep stirring until the sauce thickens to the right consistency.
- Now it's time to fry the cauliflower florets. Heat up enough oil to cover the bottom of a pan or wok, and in batches, cook your cauliflower florets until golden brown and crispy. Remove from the pan and leave on a paper towel to remove any excess oil.
- Remove from the pan and leave on a paper towel to remove any excess oil.
- Then, transfer the fried cauliflower with the sauce and combine well until all the florets are coated with the Hoisin sauce.
- Steam the bao buns using a bamboo steamer or a regular steamer (this process should only take a couple of minutes), and fill the bao buns with the Hoisin cauliflower and your favorite toppings.
