Ingredients
  

  • 1 head Cauliflower chopped into florets
  • 1 cup All-purpose flour for batter
  • 0.5 cup Cornstarch for extra crispiness
  • 1 cup Water cold
  • 1 cup Sweet and sour sauce store-bought or homemade
  • 2 tbsp Soy sauce for savory balance
  • 2 tbsp Sesame seeds toasted
  • 0.25 cup Green onions thinly sliced
  • 2 cups Vegetable oil for frying
  • 2 cups White rice cooked, for serving

Instructions
 

  • Whisk the flour, cornstarch, and water in a large bowl to create a smooth batter.
  • Dip the chopped florets into the batter, ensuring each piece is fully coated.
  • Heat vegetable oil in a deep skillet over medium-high heat. Fry the battered pieces for 5 to 7 minutes until golden brown and crispy, then drain on a paper towel.
  • In a separate pan, warm the sweet and sour sauce mixed with soy sauce over low heat. Add the fried bites and toss gently until fully coated in the glaze.
  • Garnish with seeds and sliced green onions. Serve immediately over warm cooked white rice.
