Follow The Directions

01

Step
5 mins

Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. (5 minutes)

02

Step
5 mins

In a small bowl, whisk together the gochujang, ketchup, raw sugar, soy sauce, sesame oil, honey, and minced garlic. Set this luscious sauce aside. (5 minutes)

03

Step
5 mins

In a large bowl, create the perfect batter by combining water, sweet rice flour, potato starch, granulated garlic, salt, and white pepper. If the batter seems too thick, gently incorporate a small amount of additional water until it reaches a smooth, coating consistency. (5 minutes)

04

Step
10 mins

Introduce the cauliflower pieces to the batter, ensuring each piece is generously coated. Carefully transfer the battered cauliflower to the prepared baking sheet, leaving ample space between each piece to promote even crisping. (10 minutes)

05

Step
30 mins

Bake in the preheated oven for approximately 30 minutes, or until the cauliflower develops appealing golden spots and a slightly firm texture.

06

Step
5 mins

Remove the partially baked cauliflower from the oven and transfer it to the large bowl. While keeping the oven on, pour the reserved sauce over the cauliflower and toss gently but thoroughly to ensure each piece is beautifully glazed. (5 minutes)

07

Step
15 mins

Return the sauced cauliflower to the baking sheet, again ensuring space between pieces. Continue baking for an additional 15 minutes, or until the sauce has caramelized, and tantalizing dark spots begin to appear, indicating peak flavor and texture.

08

Step

Transfer your Korean Baked Cauliflower "Wings" to a serving plate and generously sprinkle with sesame seeds. Serve immediately and savor the delightful symphony of flavors!

For an extra layer of flavor, try adding a pinch of smoked paprika to the batter.
Adjust the amount of gochujang to control the spiciness. If you prefer a milder flavor, start with 1 tablespoon.
These wings are best served immediately for maximum crispiness, but can be reheated in the oven for a few minutes if needed.
To make this vegan, substitute the honey with agave syrup or maple syrup.
