Sesame Cauliflower is coated in batter and a delicious sweet and spicy sauce. This recipe rivals any vegetarian takeout. Serve over white rice for a spectacular Meatless Monday meal.
Pour 2 inches peanut oil into a Dutch oven. Heat to 365 degrees.
In a medium bowl, stir together flour, cornstarch, salt, pepper, baking powder, and baking soda.
Whisk water and vegetable oil into flour mixture.
Add cauliflower to batter, coating well.
Fry about 5 to 6 pieces at a time, frying until golden brown on both sides. Remove to a paper towel-lined plate.
Once all cauliflower is fried, turn heat off and add onion and green pepper to oil. Let cook about 30 seconds and then remove with a slotted spoon to a paper towel-lined plate.
Serve cauliflower over rice with green pepper and onions and drizzle with sauce and sprinkle with sesame seeds just before serving
