Time 35m

Number Of Ingredients 15

2 unit Scallions
10 ounce Cauliflower Florets
4 ounce Coleslaw Mix
2 tablespoon Mayonnaise
5 teaspoon White Wine Vinegar
2 unit Frank's Hot Sauce
2 teaspoon Hot Sauce
82 g Tempura Batter
7.2 g Frank's Seasoning Blend
6 unit Flour Tortillas
½ teaspoon Sugar
Cooking Oil
3 tablespoon Butter
Kosher Salt
Pepper

Steps:

  • • Wash and dry produce. • Trim and thinly slice scallions, separating whites from greens. Cut cauliflower florets into 1-inch pieces.
  • • In a medium bowl, combine coleslaw mix, mayonnaise, 11⁄2 tsp vinegar (3 tsp for 4 servings), 1⁄4 tsp sugar (1⁄2 tsp for 4), and a pinch of salt and pepper.
  • • In a second medium microwave-safe bowl, combine scallion whites, Frank's hot sauce, hot sauce, 1 TBSP water (2 TBSP for 4 servings), a pinch of sugar, and a pinch of salt. • Microwave on high for 1 minute, then immediately stir in 3 TBSP butter (6 TBSP for 4) until melted.
  • • In a third medium bowl (use a large bowl for 4 servings), whisk together tempura mix, Frank's Seasoning, 1⁄4 cup water (1⁄2 cup for 4), and a pinch of salt and pepper. TIP: If mixture is too thick, add more water 1 tsp at a time until it reaches a pancake-batter-like consistency. • Stir in cauliflower until fully coated.
  • • Heat a 1⁄3-inch layer of oil in a large, preferably heavy-bottomed, pan over medium-high heat. Once oil is hot enough that a drop of batter sizzles when added to the pan, using a slotted spoon, add coated cauliflower. TIP: Don't overcrowd the pan! You will need to work in batches. • Cook until cauliflower is golden brown and crisp, 2-3 minutes per side. Using a slotted spoon, transfer to a paper- towel-lined plate.
  • • Wrap tortillas in damp paper towels and microwave until warm and pliable, 30 seconds. • Divide tortillas between plates; fill with slaw and cauliflower. Drizzle with sauce and sprinkle with scallion greens. Serve.

Tips:

  • For the cauliflower tacos, it is important to use a head of cauliflower that is firm and has no blemishes. The cauliflower should also be cut into florets of about the same size so that they cook evenly.
  • To make the buffalo sauce, it is important to use a good quality hot sauce. The type of hot sauce used will determine the level of spiciness of the tacos. Be sure to taste the sauce before adding it to the cauliflower to make sure it is not too spicy.
  • When baking the cauliflower, it is important to toss it with the buffalo sauce about halfway through the cooking time. This will help to ensure that the cauliflower is evenly coated with the sauce.
