Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 head cauliflower, cut into florets
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup cornstarch
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon paprika

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

  3. Coat each cauliflower floret in the batter, then roll in panko breadcrumbs, pressing gently.
  4. Bake for 25-30 minutes until golden and crispy, flipping halfway through.
  5. Prepare the sauce by mixing mayonnaise, sweet chili sauce, and sriracha in a bowl until smooth.
  6. Toss the baked cauliflower in the sauce until well coated.

Notes

For an extra crunch, double-dip the cauliflower before baking. Customize with spices and serve alongside a light salad or rice.
