Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Toss cauliflower with olive oil, both chili powders, cumin, garlic powder, oregano, salt, and pepper on a rimmed baking sheet.

• Meanwhile, combine tomatoes, onion, capers, cilantro, lime juice, salt, and pepper for pico in one bowl. Combine mayonnaise, garlic, lemon juice, and pepper for aioli in another bowl. Place both bowls in the fridge to let flavors blend until everything else is ready.
• Heat about 1 inch oil in a small pan over medium heat until hot but not smoking. Pat shallots dry with a paper towel, then lower into the oil; fry until golden brown, 6 to 8 minutes. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to drain.
• Remove oil from the pan and wipe dry. Toast tortillas if desired by heating in the pan over medium heat for 30 seconds per side.

• For the cabbage slaw: Toss together the green cabbage, red cabbage, cilantro, lime juice, honey, sour cream and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a large bowl. Set aside.
• For the chipotle avocado sauce: Combine the chipotle in adobo sauce and the cilantro in a mini food processor, pulsing until finely chopped and scraping down the sides as needed. Add the avocado, lime juice, sour cream and 1/2 teaspoon salt and process until smooth. Transfer to a small bowl and set aside.
• For the crispy cauliflower: Whisk together the white rice flour, all-purpose flour, baking powder, garlic powder, paprika, cayenne and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a large bowl. Slowly whisk in the beer until smooth (the texture and consistency should resemble pancake batter).
• Dip one-third of the cauliflower florets in the batter and coat well. Allow the excess batter to drip off and carefully place cauliflower into the hot oil. Fry until cauliflower is tender and golden brown on all side, 4 to 5 minutes total.
• Transfer with a slotted spoon to the prepared baking sheet, season lightly with salt and hold in the warm oven. Bring the oil back to 350 degrees F. Repeat with the remaining cauliflower and batter and fry two more batches.
• To toast the tortillas, warm in batches in a dry large skillet over medium-low heat, 5 seconds per side, or wrap in a damp kitchen towel and microwave for 25 seconds. Wrap in a dry kitchen towel to keep warm.

ROASTED CAULIFLOWER TACO

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment.
• Cut the cauliflower into bite-size florets, but for this vegetable, no need to make them all even in size. The smaller ones get more blistery, the bigger ones retain more texture. Put the florets in a bowl and toss with the olive oil, cumin seeds and salt. Generously coat, no need to skimp on flavor!
• Roast for 20 to 25 minutes, turning once, until the cauliflower is tender and it's edges are golden brown.
• To serve, fill a tortilla with approximately 1/3 cup of the roasted cauliflower. Top with crumbled feta, a drizzle of Greek yogurt mixed with chipotles in adobo and a sprinkle of chopped mint. Garnish with a small handful of micro-greens. Reserve the remaining ingredients for additional tacos.
• In a large bowl, combine the masa, salt and olive oil. Whilst mixing by hand, slowly pour in the water in a thin stream, adding only enough water to bring the dough together. It should be neither too dry nor too sticky. Roll the dough into 2-inch balls and cover with a damp towel until ready to press.
• Place a ball of dough in between 2 sheets of wax paper or use a sandwich-size freezer bag (with scissors, evenly cut the closure edge and the 2 side edges, so that the bag is only attached on one edge) and place in a tortilla press. Press the dough into a flat, round tortilla. Keep the tortillas covered with a damp towel until ready to cook.
• When ready to cook, heat a cast-iron skillet to high heat. Cook the tortillas in the dry pan for 30 seconds per side until golden and even browned or blackened in places.
• Put your hot tortillas in a basket wrapped in a kitchen towel to keep them warm and tender. Corn tortillas can be made 2 hours in advance, wrapped and reheated in a 350 degree F oven for about 12 minutes or in the microwave for 2 minutes.

CAULIFLOWER TACOS

Steps:

Cook for 12-15 minutes or until the cauliflower is tender and the onions have caramelized. Reduce the heat to low stir in the pineapple sauce, the remaining cup of pineapple chunks and the jalapeno. Simmer for 8-10 minutes or until the sauce has reduced and coats the cauliflower, there will still be sauce left in the pan, this is good. Remove from the heat and stir in the cilantro.
• Divide the cauliflower among the warmed tortillas, drizzling each taco with the remaining sauce left in the pan. Top each taco with fresh cilantro, lime juice and feta.
