• Step 1

  INGREDIENTS:
  - 4 cups of cauliflower
  - 1/2 cup of white flour
  - 2 tbsp baking powder
  - 2 tbsp cornstarch
  - 1 tbsp garlic powder
  - 1 tsp cayenne pepper
  - 1/3 cup water + more for thinning
  - Oil for frying
  - 1/2 cup buffalo or hot sauce for topping
  - Vegan ranch or blue cheese for dipping

• Step 2

  PREPARATION:
  - Chop your cauliflower into bite-size pieces.

• Step 3

  MAKE THE BATTER:
  - Combine the dry ingredients (flour, baking powder, cornstarch, garlic, cayenne) in a large bowl.
  - Mix with a whisk or fork until they're evenly combined.
  - Add 1/3 cup of water to the bowl. Whisk until a thick batter forms (it should be like pancake batter).
  - If it's too thick, continue adding water about 2 tbsp at a time until you get to the desired consistency.

• Step 4

  FRY THE CAULIFLOWER:
  - Heat the oil in a large pot on the stove, over medium heat. (I used a 12-inch sauce pot and heated about 2-inches of oil in the pot.)
  - Coat the cauliflower bites in the batter, then drop them in the hot oil.
  - Fry the cauliflower until they're golden brown, then remove them from the oil and place on a drying rack to cool.
  - Repeat with the rest of the cauliflower.

• Step 5

  GET SAUCY:
  - Once the cauliflower is done frying, toss them in about 1/2 cup of buffalo sauce.
  - Serve immediately with a side of vegan ranch or blue cheese.

• Step 6

  TIPS & TRICKS:
  - You should be able to fit a lot of cauliflower in your pot, but make sure to not overcrowd the pot. You don't want them to really be touching or on top of each other.
