Soy Garlic Glazed Korean Fried Cauliflower
Soy Garlic Glazed Korean Fried Cauliflower is a delicious dish that features crispy cauliflower florets coated in a savory soy garlic glaze. It’s a popular Korean-inspired vegetarian or vegan alternative to traditional fried chicken. The cauliflower is usually coated in a batter, fried until crispy, and then tossed in a sticky sweet and savory sauce made with soy sauce, garlic, and other seasonings. It’s a flavorful and satisfying dish that’s perfect for a tasty appetizer or a main dish.
Ingredients
- 1 head cauliflower cut into florets
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup water
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- Oil for frying
- 4 cloves garlic minced
- 1/4 cup soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch mixed with 1 tablespoon water (optional, for thickening)
- Sesame seeds for garnish
- green onions chopped for garnish
Instructions
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, water, salt, and pepper to create a batter. Dip the cauliflower florets into the batter to coat them evenly.
- Heat oil in a deep frying pan or pot over medium-high heat. Fry the cauliflower florets in batches until they are golden and crispy. Remove with a slotted spoon and place on paper towels to drain excess oil.
- In a separate pan, heat a little oil over medium heat and sauté the minced garlic until fragrant.
- Add soy sauce, honey, rice vinegar, and sesame oil to the pan. Stir well to combine and bring to a simmer.
- If you prefer a thicker glaze, you can add the cornstarch-water mixture to the sauce and stir until it thickens slightly.
- Toss the fried cauliflower florets in the soy garlic glaze until they are well coated.
- Serve the Soy Garlic Glazed Korean Fried Cauliflower hot, garnished with sesame seeds and chopped green onions.
- Enjoy!
