This is my vegan version of popcorn shrimp I used an air fryer and came out so crunchy but oven baked is fine too. Great as an appetizer or side dish. Here‘s how I do it:
Ingredients
1 head of cauliflower cut into florets
3/4 cup flour of choice I used gluten free flour but standard flour is fine or chickpea flour works well too.
1 tbs paprika
1 tbs garlic powder
1 tbs onion powder
S&P to taste
1/2 cup vegan milk I used oat milk
1/2 cup panko breadcrumbs
For the Sauce
1/2 stick vegan butter
2 tbs hoisin sauce or soy sauce
1 tbs agave nectar
1 tsp sesame oil
1-2 tsp hot chili paste or oil depending how spicy you like it
1 tsp rice wine vinegar
Mix the dry ingredients in a bowl, the flour and spices then add the milk till it forms a pancake type batter consistency. Dip the cauliflower pieces in the batter then coat them with the panko in a separate bowl. Place on parchment lined baking sheet and bake at 350 for 20-25 mins till golden and crisp or cook in air fryer for 12 mins at 375. While cooking add the butter to a sauce pan and melt it over low flame then add the other liquid ingredients and combine. When cauliflower is cooked place in a large bowl and drizzle with the sauce stir so it coats all the pieces and serve immediately while hot.
