Method

1. 1

   Preheat the oven to 200°C fan / 425°F and line a large baking tray with baking paper.

   
2. 2

   In a mixing bowl combine the flour, plant-based milk, mixed herbs, and big pinches of salt and pepper with 5 tablespoons of water. Whisk until fully combined, to make a batter.

   
3. 3

   Put the panko breadcrumbs into a medium-sized mixing bowl along with the vegetable oil. Use your hands to combine (make sure you remove any clumps).

   
4. 4

   Add the cauliflower florets to the bowl of batter and use a spoon to toss them. Once the florets are fully coated in the batter, toss them in the breadcrumb mix one at a time, then place on the lined baking tray.

   
5. 5

   Bake the florets for 25 minutes.

   
6. 6

   Meanwhile, if serving with ranch dressing, put all the ingredients into a small mixing bowl and stir to combine.

   
7. 7

   To make the BBQ hot sauce, put the sauce ingredients into a saucepan or a wok on a low heat. Stir and cook for 2–3 minutes until the sauce is hot.

   
8. 8

   Once the cauliflower has finished baking, add to the pan of hot sauce and stir through until the florets are fully coated.

   
9. 9

   Transfer the hot wings to a serving plate and top with a sprinkling of sesame seeds. To finish, sprinkle the spring onion on top. Serve with the homemade ranch dressing.
