Bang Bang Cauliflower

I have already made a version on Bone Fish Grill's bang bang shrimp...as bang bang chicken. Now I am making it as bang bang cauliflower. This recipe is a bit different than the bang bang chicken I made. It was really good! Fried cauliflower is so addicting! My hubby would not try it because he hates cauliflower, but he did try the bang bang sauce and liked it. I had the cauliflower on the side of grilled jerk chicken. Yum!

Ingredients

1/2 Cup of gluten free panko bread crumbs
2 Tablespoons of cornstarch
1 Egg
Cauliflower

Garlic powder
Green onion
Coconut oil

Sauce

1/4 Cup of mayo (I used the brand Just Mayo--it's vegan)
1/4 Cup of a Sweet Chili Sauce or Siracha 
1 Tablespoon of rice vinegar

Directions

1. Slice your cauliflower florets. Mix the pepper and garlic powder into the panko breadcrumbs in a bowl

2. Set separate bowls aside with egg and cornstarch. Dip your florets one by one into the cornstarch, then dip into egg whites, and then coat with the panko

3. Place the cauliflower in a pan that with heated coconut oil 

4. Turn the cauliflower with tongs making sure all sides are browned

5. When done, place the cauliflower on top of paper towels in a bowl to remove excess oil

6. Make the sauce by mixing all of the sauce ingredients

7. Coat the fried cauliflower with the sauce
