Sweet and Sour Cauliflower
An easy to make vegan meal that’s perfect to satisfy that sweet and sour chicken craving! A delicious vegan fake-out take-out weeknight dinner! We start by tossing the cauliflower florets in a bit of oil and then adding in cornstarch and salt & pepper to the mix. That is then fried briefly in some oil before being added to a baking sheet. The sauce is whisked together and poured over the cauliflower that is then baked in the oven for about 15 minutes. THAT’S IT!
Ingredients
For the sauce:
Instructions
- Step 1
Pre-heat your oven to 425 degrees F and lightly grease a baking sheet.
- Step 2
Place the cauliflower in a large plastic baggie (you can also do this in a large bowl) and toss in the salt, pepper, and 3 tablespoons of the oil. Give it a good shake to coat the cauliflower and then add in the 1/2 cup of cornstarch. Toss again until covered in the cornstarch.
- Step 3
Heat 1/3 cup of oil in a large pot over medium high heat. Once hot, add in the cauliflower and fry for about 5 minutes, tossing to cook on all sides. Once done, place on the baking sheet.
- Step 4
Make the sauce by whisking together the apple cider vinegar, ketchup, soy sauce, maple syrup, garlic salt, and corn starch + water. Pour the sauce over top of the cauliflower and toss.
- Step 5
Bake for 10-15 minutes or until the cauliflower is just starting to get crispy.
- Step 6
Serve with sesame seeds, green onion, and ENJOY!
