Sweet Cauliflower Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with foil and lightly grease with oil.
• Combine the cauliflower and 3 tablespoons of the oil in a large resealable plastic bag. Seal and shake until well coated. Add 1/2 cup of the cornstarch, 1 teaspoon salt and the pepper, then reseal and shake until well coated.
• Heat the remaining 1/3 cup oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the cauliflower and fry, tossing to cook on all sides, until deep golden brown in spots, about 10 minutes. Transfer the fried cauliflower to the prepared baking sheet and bake until the cauliflower starts to get crispy, 10 to 15 minutes
• While the cauliflower bakes, prepare the sauce. Whisk together the sugar, vinegar, soy sauce, ketchup, garlic powder and the remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt in a medium saucepan. Place over medium-high heat and bring to a boil; the sauce should thicken slightly.
• Whisk together the remaining 1 tablespoon cornstarch with 2 tablespoons cold water in a small bowl until fully dissolved. Add the cornstarch slurry to the boiling sauce, reduce the heat to low and cook until thickened, about 30 seconds.
• Transfer the cauliflower to a large bowl and add half of the sauce. Toss until the cauliflower is well coated, then add the remaining sauce and toss. Garnish with the scallions and sesame seeds and serve with rice.
• Place the rice and 2 1/4 cups cold water in a medium saucepan. Put the pan over medium-high heat. Bring to a boil, reduce to a simmer, cover and cook until the rice is tender, 18 to 20 minutes. Remove the lid and fluff the rice before serving.

Steps:

• Mix sweet chili sauce, Sriracha, and minced garlic together in a small bowl.
• Heat oil in a skillet over medium-high. Add cauliflower and sauce; cook for 5 minutes. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer until tender, about 5 minutes more.

Steps:

• Parboil the cauliflower in boiling salted water until it is tender-crisp-- don't let the pieces get too soft.
• Drain and set aside.
• In a large skillet over medium heat, melt butter, then add drained cauliflower and turn gently to coat evenly.
• Sprinkle evenly with the brown sugar.
• Continue turning and coating until sugar begins to melt completely and starts to caramelize-- about 3 or 4 minutes.
• Remove from heat and transfer florets to a serving bowl using a slotted spoon.
• Serve warm or at room temperature.
