How to Prepare Sticky Chili Cauliflower Wings [Vegan]

  1. Heat the oven to 400°F.
  2. Cut the cauliflower into bite-size florets.
  3. Combine the batter ingredients in a mixing bowl. You want it to be quite thick to stick to the cauliflower, so adjust with flour and water until you have a consistency you're happy with.
  4. Line a baking tray with parchment paper or a silicone mat.
  5. Dip each floret into the batter, coat completely, allow any excess to drip off then place on the tray. Cook in the oven for 20 minutes.
  6. While the wings are cooking, make the sauce. Put all the sauce ingredients in a saucepan and cook on a medium heat for about 12 minutes. Use a potato masher to break down the dates as it's cooking. You want to end up with a thick, sticky sauce.
  7. After the wings have cooked for 20 minutes, remove them from the oven. Carefully tip them into the sauce and gently mix until they are all coated. Put them back on the oven tray using a spoon and cook for 5 more minutes.

  1. I really like how this is a fat free recipe and using dates to sweeten the sauce is genius. However if using dried dates I recommend soaking them beforehand and using a blender to really get the sauce smooth. I was crushing mine in the pot and I still had chunks of dates in the sauce at the end. Overall, a tasty recipe!
