Method

Appetizers

  1. 1

    Prepare the Cauliflower

    Begin by preheating your oven to 450°F (230°C). While the oven is heating, wash the cauliflower thoroughly. Cut the cauliflower into bite-sized florets.

  2. 2

    Make the Batter

    In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, cornstarch, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, and salt. Whisk these dry ingredients together until well combined. Gradually add the water, whisking continuously until you achieve a smooth batter.

  3. 3

    Coat the Cauliflower

    Dip each cauliflower floret into the batter, ensuring they are well-coated. Shake off any excess batter and place the florets on a parchment-lined baking sheet.

  4. 4

    Bake the Cauliflower

    Drizzle the olive oil over the battered cauliflower florets. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until they are golden brown and crispy. Flip the florets halfway through baking to ensure even crispiness.

  5. 5

    Toss in Buffalo Sauce

    Once the cauliflower is baked, remove them from the oven and place them in a large bowl. Pour the buffalo sauce over the baked cauliflower and toss gently until all pieces are well-coated.

  6. 6

    Garnish and Serve

    Transfer the buffalo cauliflower to a serving platter. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley and serve with blue cheese dressing on the side for dipping.
