Spicy Cauliflower Recipes

Steps:

• Break up the cauliflower into large florets, then use your hands to break into very small florets.
• Heat a large, heavy skillet over medium-high to high heat. Add the oil, then the cauliflower and garlic. Stir the cauliflower around in the pan, allowing it to get very brown in some parts. Cook for 3 minutes, then turn the heat to low.
• Add the soy sauce, lime juice and most of the green onions, reserving the rest for serving. Stir and allow to cook for 1 minute, then add the sriracha and stir until incorporated. Add a little more sriracha if you want a deeper color and flavor.
• Serve hot in a bowl. Sprinkle the remaining green onions on top and serve with lime wedges.

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a big pan or wok with a lid, then add the ginger and spices. Swirl everything around for a few secs until the spices are aromatic. Reduce the heat, then stir in the cauliflower and some seasoning. Put the lid on and cook for 10 mins or until softened, stirring occasionally. Sprinkle over the coriander before serving.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Combine cauliflower florets, olive oil, hoisin sauce, Sriracha sauce, salt, and pepper in a large bowl; toss to combine. Spread out in a single layer on a baking sheet.
• Bake in the preheated oven until cauliflower is soft and cooked through, about 30 minutes, turning once after 20 minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 250˚ F. Set a rack on a rimmed baking sheet and place in the oven. Whisk the milk, eggs and hot sauce in a medium bowl. Stir together the flour, 1 tablespoon salt and 2 teaspoons black pepper in another medium bowl. In a separate medium heatproof bowl, stir together the melted butter, brown sugar, cayenne, paprika, garlic powder and 1 teaspoon each salt and pepper.
• Fill a medium saucepan halfway with vegetable oil. Heat the oil over medium-high heat until a deep-fry thermometer registers 350˚ F. Working in batches of about 8 florets at a time, toss the cauliflower in the flour mixture, then dip in the milk mixture, then dredge again in the flour mixture, allowing the excess to fall off between each step. Fry until deep golden brown, carefully turning as needed, 6 to 8 minutes. Remove the cauliflower with a spider or a slotted spoon and transfer to the baking sheet in the oven; keep warm while you fry the remaining cauliflower.
• When all the cauliflower is fried, carefully ladle about 1 cup of the frying oil into the melted butter mixture and stir. (It will sizzle slightly.) Working in batches, add the fried cauliflower to the hot spiced oil, then remove with a slotted spoon and transfer to a platter. Spoon 2 to 3 more tablespoons of the spiced oil over all the florets. Serve with pickles, hot honey and more hot sauce.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees.
• Toss the cauliflower with the olive oil, garlic and red pepper on a baking sheet. Sprinkle with thyme and toss again.
• Roast until golden and tender, about 15-20 minutes. Watch the cauliflower around the 15 minute time so that it doesn't burn. The cauliflower should be golden not a darker color.
• Transfer to a serving bowl and serve. Depending on your taste, you can lightly salt the cauliflower before serving.

Steps:

• Cut the cauliflower into small florets.
• Wash the cauliflower florets and drain the water.
• While they are still wet, add the chili powder, cornflour, white pepper powder, msg, and few drops of vinegar.
• Toss till the cauliflower is well coated.
• In 2 tbsp of oil, shallow fry the cauliflower florets till the turn lightly brown and crisp on the outside. Stir constantly, taking care that the cauliflower doesn't stick to the bottom of the pan.
• Strain and keep aside.
• In a separate pan, heat the remaining oil, fry the onions till translucent.
• Next add the bell peppers, spring onions, green chilies and ginger garlic paste. Stir constantly for 5minutes.
• Then add soy sauce, tomato ketchup, salt and the chili-garlic sauce. Immediately add the fried cauliflower florets.
• When the sauces coat the florets well and is almost dry, remove from heat and serve hot.

Steps:

• Bring a large pan of salted water to the boil and cook the cauliflower for 5 mins over a high heat, adding the spinach for the final 2 mins. Drain and set aside.
• Heat the oil in a large frying pan or shallow casserole dish and fry the onion over a medium heat for 5 mins. Turn up the heat, add the halloumi, cook for a further 5 mins, then add the garlic, ginger, turmeric and curry powder, and cook for 1 min more. Stir through the rice, cauliflower and spinach to warm everything through, adding 1 tbsp water if it looks a little dry. Season and scatter over the chilli.

Steps:

• Arrange racks in the upper and lower thirds of your oven. Heat oven to 425 degrees.
• Prepare the cauliflower: In a large bowl, whisk together olive oil, cumin, paprika, salt, coriander, turmeric, black pepper and cayenne. Add cauliflower and onion, and toss until well coated. Spread mixture in a single layer on a rimmed baking sheet.
• Roast vegetables on the top oven rack until they are golden brown, slightly crisp and tender, 30 to 40 minutes, stirring once or twice. If the vegetables look dry as they roast, drizzle with a little more olive oil.
• As they cook, prepare the tahini sauce: Whisk together lemon juice, 1 teaspoon harissa, garlic and salt in a small bowl, and let sit for a minute or two to mellow the garlic. Whisk in tahini. Whisk in ice water, 1 tablespoon at a time, until the sauce is smooth and thin enough to drizzle. You may not need all of the water or you may need to add a little more: Tahini brands vary a lot. Taste and adjust seasoning, adding more harissa, lemon juice and salt if you like. The sauce should taste zippy and creamy.
• Warm the pitas or flatbread by placing them directly on the bottom oven rack during the last 5 minutes as the vegetables roast. (Or you can warm the bread on another baking pan if that's easier for you.)
• Scatter parsley on top of the roasted vegetables and serve with warm pitas, tahini sauce, chopped tomato, cucumber and olives.
