Method

1. 1

   Break up the cauliflower into florets. Then combine the plain flour, cornflour, a large pinch of salt, baking powder and water in a large mixing bowl. Add the florets and stir until they’re coated in the batter.

   
2. 2

   Add enough vegetable oil to a wok on a medium heat until the oil is about 1cm deep in the pan. When the oil is hot, carefully add the cauliflower florets – in batches if necessary – and fry for 3-5 minutes until they begin to brown, turning occasionally so they cook on all sides. You want to avoid overcooking the cauliflower and they should still have a good crunch to them. Then transfer the cauliflower to kitchen paper to soak up any excess oil.

   
3. 3

   Remove the oil from the wok and wipe it clean. Then combine all of the sauce ingredients in the wok and heat it through on a medium heat for 2-3 minutes. Next stir in the cauliflower until they’re coated in the spicy sauce.

   
4. 4

   To serve, top the cauliflower bites with sesame seeds and sliced spring onion.
