bbq cauliflower

Perfectly cooked pan fried cauliflower coated with an easy homemade Korean BBQ sauce makes a delicious sweet, salty and tangy dish. It&#039;s fast to prepare and is great over rice or paired with other Asian inspired dishes for a full meal.

Sticky Korean Cauliflower

vegetable oil

scallions (sliced (the white part only); aproximately 4 medium scallions)

garlic

cauliflower florets

soy sauce

brown sugar

rice vinegar

cornstarch

Sesame seeds

Heat the oil in a large pan or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the scallions and cook until soft, around 2 minutes.

Add the garlic cloves and the cauliflower florets and cook until the cauliflower florets are fork tender, around 6 to 8 minutes.

While the cauliflower is cooking, prepare the sauce. In a small bowl whisk together the soy sauce, brown sugar, rice vinegar and cornstarch.

Pour sauce over the cauliflower and cook, stirring constantly until the sauce has thickened and caramelized, fully coating the cauliflower (1-2 minutes).

Remove from heat, garnish with sesame seeds and serve immediately.

These Vegan BBQ Cauliflower Tacos are crispy, saucy, and the perfect comfort food. What's better than baked BBQ coated cauliflower served in a warm tortilla? These tacos make for a fun and unique dinner! 

Vegan BBQ Cauliflower Tacos

cauliflower (about 4 cups)

almond milk

all purpose flour

garlic powder

onion powder

salt

bread crumbs

BBQ sauce

Corn tortillas (or tortilla of choice)

Vegan sour cream

Chopped pickles

Cilantro

Chop the cauliflower into bite-sized florets. Chop small enough so that you can comfortably eat them in a taco!

Prep the batter and breadcrumbs

In a mixing bowl, make a batter by whisking together the almond milk, flour, garlic powder, onion powder, and salt. It should be nice and thick. In a second bowl, add the breadcrumbs. 

Batter and bread the cauliflower florets

Coat a floret in the batter, letting any excess batter drip off. Then roll the floret in the breadcrumbs until evenly coated. Place on a greased or lined baking tray. Continue this step until all the florets are coated. 

Bake for 25 minutes, then remove from the oven. 

Add the BBQ sauce to a bowl, and evenly coat each piece of cauliflower.

Return the florets to the baking tray and bake an additional 15 minutes. 

While the cauliflower is baking, warm up some corn tortillas in a skillet over medium-high heat, for about 20-30 seconds on each side. 

Serve immediately. I love eating these tacos with a little bit of cashew sour cream, and chopped pickles (yes, really), and cilantro.

Asian BBQ Roasted Cauliflower with cilantro, peanuts, and a sticky-sweet glaze. The most flavorful roasted cauliflower recipe you&#039;ll try.

Asian BBQ Roasted Cauliflower

head cauliflower,

olive oil ((sub avocado oil))

kosher salt

roasted peanuts and fresh chopped cilantro for garnish

Tbsp. ketchup

Tbsp. honey

Tbsp. sweet red chili sauce ((I use Thai Kitchen brand))

ginger

Tom Yum paste* ((sub red Thai curry paste))

Preheat oven to 450ºF. Line a rimmed baking sheet with foil for easy clean up, if desired. Toss cauliflower in olive oil and salt, and spread out on prepared baking sheet. Bake for 22 to 25 minutes, stirring once halfway through, until golden and charred in some spots.

Meanwhile, prepare Asian BBQ Sauce by placing all sauce ingredients in a small bowl and whisking to combine.

Drizzle half of Asian BBQ Sauce over roasted cauliflower, and toss to coat. Place cauliflower back in the oven, and bake for 8 to 10 more minutes, tossing every few minutes, until deeply caramelized.

Transfer cauliflower to a bowl or serving platter, and drizzle remaining sauce overtop. Garnish with chopped peanuts and fresh cilantro.

Made this today - sooo good
Didn’t have any Tom yum so used Massaman turned out pretty good anyway!!

This recipe was insanely delicious! The sauce is so good. We tossed it with the cauliflower and shrimp over rice. I used the air fryer to make it extra speedy to whip up. My teens loved it, too. Thanks for an easy and awesome recipe!

I made this tonight and my (non-vegetarian) husband and I both loved it.  The only change I made was to use the Air Fryer to roast the cauliflower, since it was a weeknight.  I had dinner on the table in less than 30 minutes.  I enjoyed making the recipe; this is a great technique for cauliflower.  I'm going to work my way through this website making all the cauliflower recipes now.  Thanks for the recipe and for including the nutritional analysis--very helpful.

Made this exactly as recipe but put half sauce initially, I goofed. Then baked some more and broiled a couple minutes. Served with Lindbergh wild blend rice and some roasted pancetta only because I had it. Would have been fine without meat. Loved it!

So good! I served it with coconut milk rice as another commenter suggested and it is a perfect pairing. I also had some red cages, so I shredded that and added it along with some scallions, a fried egg, and sesame seeds! I will definitely be making this again!

The sauce is delicious - I plan on using it again on Cauliflower Steaks for a Meatless Monday!

This recipe was incredible. Do yourself a favor and make it!

I never knew cauliflower could taste so good. This dish is so delicious. I am obsessed with the sauce. I would love to have this with your Black Pepper Tofu recipe some day.

So delicious! Made some extra sauce too and put it on salmon which paired really well.
