Sticky, rich and sweet, cauliflower has never looked better. I would eat cauliflower in almost any format, but this recipe is the most decadent and indulgent version. Made with peanut butter, maple syrup, ginger and spices, it's perfect for a dinner party, potluck or festive celebration.

Ingredients for the cauliflower

200ml vegan milk
100g plain flour (gluten free if required)
Salt and pepper, to taste
1/2 tsp baking powder (gluten free if required)
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp onion powder
200g breadcrumbs (gluten free if required)
1 large cauliflower, cut into pieces

Ingredients for the sauce

4 tbs sesame seeds
6 tbs maple syrup
2 tbs soy sauce (or tamari for gluten free option)
4 tsp apple cider vinegar
1 tsp liquid smoke
4 tbs olive oil
2 tsp fresh chilli, finely diced
1 tbs fresh ginger, finely diced
2 tsp cornflour
1.5 tbs pure peanut butter

Instructions for the cauliflower

Preheat oven to approximately 180 degrees Celsius and line a large baking tray with baking paper.
In a large bowl, combine milk, flour, seasoning and powders and mix until smooth.
Place breadcrumbs in another bowl and set aside.
Dip each piece of cauliflower into the batter, let the excess drip off, then dip into breadcrumbs and place on prepared tray.
Bake cauliflower in the oven for 30 minutes.

Instructions for the sauce

Combine all ingredients in a medium saucepan and cook over a medium heat until the sauce starts to thicken up and bubble.
Pour over cooked cauliflower and place back in the oven for a further 20 minutes.
Serve hot!
