Creating crispy cauliflower can be a challenge without a deep-fryer.
Try our unique blend of almond milk and rice flour to create a
delicious coating that comes out crispy when baked.

SERVES 2
Crispy Cauliflower
2 Tbsp oil
2 Tbsp rice flour
4 Tbsp almond milk
½ tsp salt
1 small head of cauliflower,
chopped into florets
Satay Dipping Sauce
3 Tbsp Forty Thieves Crunchy

Peanut Butter
1 ½ tsp soy sauce
2 tsp coconut sugar
4 Tbsp coconut cream
½ red chilli, finely chopped
(or ¼ tsp chilli flakes)
½ tsp ginger, grated

Green Salad
1 cup baby spinach
1 radish, thinly sliced
½ cup fresh mint, chopped
½ cup coriander, chopped
1 Tbsp sesame oil
1 Tbsp apple cider vinegar
½ tsp salt
1 tsp sesame seeds

Preheat oven to 180°C and line a baking tray with baking
paper.
Combine the oil, rice flour, almond milk and salt in a medium
sized bowl to create a wet paste. Mix thoroughly until there
are no lumps. Add in the cauliflower florets and completely
coat the pieces in the batter. Cover the bowl and leave in the
fridge for 10 minutes.
To make the satay dipping sauce, mix the peanut butter and
soy sauce in a bowl. Add in the coconut sugar and coconut
cream until well combined. Then mix in the chilli and ginger.
Remove the cauliflower florets from the fridge and lay them
evenly onto the baking tray without letting the pieces touch
each other (this will ensure the cauliflower comes out crispy
and not soggy when baked).
Place in the oven for 10 minutes or until golden and then
turn the pieces to cook on the other side for an additional 10
minutes. Once cooked, remove from the oven and allow to
cool for 2-3 minutes.
To make the salad, toss together spinach, radish, mint and
coriander. Whisk together the sesame oil, apple cider vinegar
and salt before mixing this through the salad.
Divide the salad between two large plates and sprinkle
the sesame seeds on top. Top each salad with the crispy
cauliflower florets.
Drizzle the satay sauce over the salad or serve in a ramekin on
the side for dipping the cauliflower in.
