My FAVORITE Appetizer.....Bang Bang Cauliflower!

I admit this is not my "original" creation. I did find a very similar recipe on Pinterest that links to http://www.thatssomichelle.com/2012/02/bang-bang-cauliflower.html. I tried it with a few adjustments and LOVED IT! Even the hubby gobbled it down. Unfortunately it is still fried, but at least it sneaks a veggie in!


Bang Bang Cauliflower

1 head fresh cauliflower, cut into small florets
1 cup SEASONED bread crumbs
1/4 cup cornstarch
2 cup egg whites
1/2 cup milk
Generous amount of vegetable cooking oil of your choice
Chopped green onion for garnish (about 2 stalks)

Sauce
1/2 c Olive Oil Mayo
1/4-1/3 c Sriracha Sauce......or more! : )
2 tablespoon rice vinegar
3 tablespoons sugar

1. Chop green onions and set aside. Prepare sauce by combining all sauce ingredients in a small bowl and stirring until well-blended. Set aside.

2. Whisk egg whites and milk in a bowl and set aside. Place cut cauliflower into large bowl, sprinkle with cornstarch and toss. Pour breadcrumbs into a third bowl.

3. Begin heating cooking oil in a large skillet. Dip florets into egg white mixture and roll in breadcrumbs. Carefully place into hot oil and turn once after browning.

4. As florets brown, remove and place on paper towels to soak extra oil. When all are cooked, place into one large bowl.

5. Toss with sauce and green onions. Eat immediately for best flavor and texture!
