Korean fried chicken has been a huge street food craze recently. But what about the veggies?? Today I made korean fried cauliflower- however, I decided to bake it rather than fry it to keep it healthier. They are perfect to go into bao buns.

• 1 cauliflower

For the batter:

• 0.5 cup plain flour
• 0.5 cup cornflour
• 1 tsp baking powder
• 1 cup very cold water
• 1 egg beaten

For the sauce:

• 2 tbsp gouchjang paste (korean chilli paste)
• 2 tbsp honey
• 1 tbsp brown sugar
• 5 tbsp soy sauce
• 2 garlic cloves, finely chopped
• 2 inches of ginger, finely chopped
• 1 tsp sesame oil

Method:

1. Preheat oven to 220 degrees c.
2. Mix together the plain flour, cornflour and baking powder in a bowl.
3. Mix in the cold water and egg.
4. Add the cauliflower florets to the batter.
5. Place on a baking tray and bake for 20-30 minutes, turning over halfway.
6. Mix the sauce ingredients together in a pan.
7. Once the cauliflower is done and crispy, mix into the sauce.
