Description

A delightful treat that combines sweet and spicy flavors with a crispy texture, perfect for snacks or appetizers.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 head of cauliflower, cut into florets
  • 60 ml honey
  • 60 ml sriracha sauce
  • 120 g cornstarch
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 240 ml vegetable oil (for frying)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 220°C (425°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Toss the cauliflower florets with cornstarch, garlic powder, onion powder, and salt in a large bowl until evenly coated.
  3. In a separate bowl, mix together the honey and sriracha sauce until well combined.
  4. Drizzle half of the honey sriracha mixture over the coated cauliflower florets and toss to coat.
  5. Spread the cauliflower florets in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet and bake for about 25-30 minutes, flipping halfway through.
  6. Once baked, drizzle the remaining honey sriracha mixture over the hot cauliflower and toss gently to coat.
  7. Transfer the bites to a plate and serve warm as an appetizer or snack.

Notes

  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
  • Reheat in an oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 10 minutes to restore crispiness.
  • For a vegan option, replace honey with maple syrup.
  • For extra crunch, consider air frying the cauliflower bites instead of baking.
