Servings 4 people
Ingredients
- 120 ml (½ cup) milk
- 120 ml (½ cup) water
- 90 g (⅔ cup) plain (all purpose) flour (use gluten free plain flour blend if required)
- 1 tsp garlic salt
- ½ tsp celery salt
- ½ tbsp paprika
- ΒΌ tsp chilli flakes
- ¼ tsp salt
- ¼ tsp ground pepper
- 1 head of cauliflower cut into chunky florets
Sauce:
- 1 tsp vegetable oil
- pinch of salt and pepper
- 1 thumb-sized piece of ginger peeled and minced
- 1 tbsp sweet chilli sauce (check it's gluten free if required)
- 2 tbsp honey
- 4 tbsp brown sugar
- 5 tbsp soy sauce (use tamari for gluten free)
- 2 cloves garlic pealed and minced
- 1 tsp lemon grass paste
Also:
- 2 tbsp chopped spring onions scallions
- ½ tsp chilli flakes
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 220C/425F and line a large baking tray with a silicone mat or baking parchment.
- Add the milk, water, flour, garlic salt, celery salt, paprika, chilli flakes salt and pepper to a large bowl. Mix it all together until no lumps remain, then add the cauliflower florets.
- Mix together to completely cover the florets. Use a slotted spoon to lift the florets out of the mixture, allowing the excess batter to drip off. Place the florets on the prepared baking tray, leaving a little room between each.
- Place in the oven and cook for 20 minutes, turning once after 10 minutes.
- Meanwhile, add all of the sauce ingredients into a saucepan, stir and bring to the boil. Allow to bubble for 5-10 minutes until the sauce reduces and thickens slightly (it will thicken more as it cools). Turn off the heat.
- Place the wings in a large bowl and very carefully pour over the sticky sauce (be careful, it will VERY hot). Toss to combine, then serve topped with chopped spring onions (scallions) and chilli flakes.
