Lovely Mairead, from our team here at Breast Cancer Now, makes these scrumptious cauliflower bites with chipotle spiced dip. These snacks are a tasty addition to any event.
Ingredients:
For the bites:
- 1 large cauliflower
- 150g plain flour
- 300ml of milk (or plant-based alternative)
- 2 teaspoons of paprika powder
- 1 ½ teaspoon of onion powder
- 1 teaspoon of garlic powder
- Salt and pepper
- 100g breadcrumbs
For the dip:
- 3 teaspoons of chipotle hot sauce (or more if you like spice!)
- A squeeze of lemon
- 120g natural yoghurt (or plant-based alternative)
- Herbs to garnish
Method:
- Pre-heat the oven to 180˚°C and line 2 baking trays
- Break the cauliflower into bite-sized pieces, then steam or boil until cooked
- Put the flour, milk, paprika, onion and garlic powder into a bowl and whisk into a batter. Add the salt and pepper and whisk again
- Pour the breadcrumbs into another bowl
- Tip the cauliflower into the bowl and coat in the batter, transfer each floret of cauliflower into the breadcrumbs and toss until they are completely coated
- Put the cauliflower pieces on the baking tray and bake for 40 minutes (or until golden brown)
- For the dip, in a bowl add the natural yoghurt, chipotle hot sauce, and a squeeze of lemon. Mix well together, taste, and adjust the spice if needed!
- Add the herb garnish and serve immediately while the cauliflower bites are still hot
