Equipment

Ingredients

For the Cauliflower:

  • 1 head cauliflower cut into small florets
  • 1 tbsp olive oil

For the Garlic Soy Sauce:

  • cup tamari (or soy sauce if not GF)
  • ¼ cup water
  • 2 large cloves garlic minced
  • 2 tbsp honey (or maple/date syrup for vegan option)
  • 1 tsp sesame oil
  • 1 tsp sriracha
  • ¼ tsp ground ginger
  • 1 tbsp tapioca flour (or arrowroot or cornstarch)

For Topping:

  • sesame seeds
  • green onion chopped

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 425F. Add chopped cauliflower to a sheet pan and toss with oil. Spread out evenly on the pan so that none of the cauliflower are overlapping. Bake for 10-15 minutes, flip, and then bake for another 10-15 minutes or until tender and golden.
  • While the cauliflower is baking, add all sauce ingredients (except for the tapioca flour) to a large pan over medium-low heat. Stir and let it cook for a few minutes until the honey is melted and the sauce is getting warm.
  • Stir in the tapioca flour. Continue cooking the sauce, stirring occasionally, until it has thickened (about 5-10 minutes). 
  • Once the sauce has thickened, add the roasted cauliflower to the pan. Toss the cauliflower in the sauce to coat it. 
  • Serve with sesame seeds and chopped green onion!
