Popcorn Cauliflower

- Season the plant-based milk with a pinch of salt and pepper and soak the cauliflower florets in them for 30 mins to marinate.
- While the cauliflower is marinating, in a large bowl, mix the flours and seasoning together and set aside. Also mix the ingredients together to make the gochujang ketchup, so that it's ready for dipping later.
- After the cauliflower has marinated, coat them generously in the seasoned flour mix and heat up a saucepan of oil to frying temperature, mine was around 200ºC.
- Gently drop a batch in to fry, keeping the oil the same temperature, and toss around to ensure all evenly fried and golden brown.
- Drain on some kitchen towel and enjoy when hot and crisp. It may lose its crispiness later so dip away in the gochujang ketchup while you fry another batch.
