Im eager to impart my first veggie lover Chinese recipe to you! I should concede that I wasn't the greatest enthusiast of Chinese nourishment before. The salty/sweet combo tasted unusual to me yet my tastebuds have changed and now I Cherish this flavor blend.
That is the reason I have been occupied in my kitchen of late, trying out various Chinese recipes. What's more, this is the first! Kung Pao Cauliflower. The Kung Pao sauce has the ideal blend of hot, salty and sweet seasons which will make your mouth water. The recipe is vegetarian, without gluten, low in fat and calories, and can be made sans oil!
This recipe has just 8 stages which are anything but difficult to pursue and not muddled by any means. To begin with, you permit the cauliflower a pleasant comfortable shower in a player produced using chickpea flour, cornstarch, soy sauce, and water. While the cauliflower florets prepare in the stove you can broil the ringer pepper, garlic, new ginger and peppercorns in a skillet. Your kitchen will smell stunning!
The sauce and the elements for the skillet are the equivalent yet you can skirt the preparing part. Rather, you should press the tofu for around 15-20 minutes, cut it into shapes and fry it in a dish until pleasantly dark colored. You can try out the two forms and let me know which one you liked.

Sauce:
- 1/2 cup of water (120 ml)
- 3 tbsp soy sauce
- 2 tbsp rice vinegar
- 2 tbsp maple syrup
- 1 tbsp cornstarch
- 1/2 tsp smoked paprika
- 1/4-1/3 tsp cayenne pepper OR 4-6 dried chilies

Instructions
Batter:
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper. In a large bowl whisk together cornstarch, chickpea flour, plant-based milk, and soy sauce. Let it sit for about 1 minute, then add the cauliflower florets.
- Toss until all cauliflower florets are coated with batter. Transfer the cauliflower to the prepared baking sheet and bake in the oven for about 20 minutes
Skillet:
- Heat oil (or water) in a skillet over low to medium heat, add garlic, ginger, peppercorns. Saute for 1 minute, stirring frequently to avoid burning.
- Next, add bell pepper and saute with a lid on for a further 5-6 minutes, stirring frequently. Add more water if necessary (I used 1 tbsp).
Sauce:
- Meanwhile, prepare the sauce. In a medium/large bowl, combine water, soy sauce, rice vinegar, sugar, cornstarch, smoked paprika, and cayenne. Whisk.
- Pour the sauce into the skillet. Bring to a boil and let simmer on low heat for 1 minute. Add the roasted cauliflower florets and toss to coat.
- Transfer back to the baking sheet and bake for a further 10-15 minutes if you like the cauliflower to be crispy OR enjoy immediately.
- Serve with rice or rice noodles. Garnish with sesame seeds, fresh chives and peanuts (optional). Enjoy!
