Buffalo Cauliflower Steak
Ingredients
- 1 cup of flour
- 1 cup of plant milk (i used @ripplefoods but water can also work)
- 1/4 cup of @franksredhot sauce
- 1 tsp of smoked sweet paprika
- pinch of salt
- a few drops of liquid smoke (?i read this isn’t the best for you sooooo honestly, omit if you don’t feel like adding this. and certainly don’t go buy it if you don’t have it. not a necessary ingredient?)
Preparation
Cut a cauliflower steak by standing the cauliflower up and slicing from top to bottom, on each side of the center; keep the root/base in mind and careful not to cut. 1.5 inches is a good measure of thickness
Mix all marinade ingredients in a wide bowl, big enough to dip the cauliflower steak in
Use a spoon to scoop and cover the cauliflower from all sides. Let sit
Preheat the oven to 400. Let oven rise to correct temperature before putting the cauliflower in
Once brought to temp, place cauliflower steak on a parchment lined pan. Bake for 20 minutes
OPTIONAL: Heat a cast iron grill pan. Remove cauliflower from oven after 20 minutes and grill on both sides just until browned. 2-3 minutes
I ate mine with baked fries, corn, a bed of spinach (if I had bread, I would’ve eaten it as a sandwich of sorts), and some sautéed onion and garlic. Topped with a cilantro ranch made from @followyourheart veganaise, @ripplefoods original unsweetened pea milk, cilantro, onion powder, garlic powder, and a squeeze of lemon
