TERIYAKI CAULIFLOWER (OVEN-BAKED)

Steps:

• Pre-heat the oven to 400°. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• In a medium bowl, whisk the flour, water, onion and garlic powder until there are no clumps anymore. Set aside. In a medium shallow bowl, add the panko breadcrumbs. Set aside.
• Then, one at the time, sink the florets completely in the flour-water batter, remove the excess (I simply hit the side of the bowl with the floret) and then roll the pieces in the panko to cover them as much as you can. Place the pieces on the baking sheet and keep going until all the cauliflower pieces are covered.
• Cook in the oven for 15 minutes, then flip the pieces and cook for 15 more minutes.
• While the cauliflower bites are cooking, make the teriyaki sauce: In a small sauce pan, combine all the sauce ingredients and whisk until there are no clumps anymore. Cook on medium-high heat until bubbly while stirring often. Once bubbly, keep whisking for 30-60 seconds, then remove from the heat and set aside.
• When the cauliflower is done, transfer them to a large bowl and pour over about half to 3/4 of the sauce (or just enough to cover the pieces, I like to keep some for drizzling). Stir gently until all the pieces are covered with the sauce.
• Serve over cooked brown rice with a side of veggies and drizzle with the extra teriyaki sauce. Enjoy!
