Crispy cauliflower Bang Bang burritos


Light, crispy, and refreshing, these burritos make a beautiful lunch. We fried the cauliflower for a more indulgent version, but you can bake it in the oven or air fryer for a healthier option. The extra sauce works wonderfully as a dip.

Takes 30 minutes

Serves 2

Ingredients
 

Batter

  • 8 tbsp flour
  • 1 tbsp smoked paprika
  • 100 ml oat milk
  • pinch salt

Sauce

  • 4 tbsp tahini
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 1 tbsp apple cider vinegar
  • 2 cm ginger
  • 1 clove garlic
  • 1/2 red chilli
  • 2 tbsp tamari
  • 2 tbsp maple syrup
  • 3 tbsp tomato paste
  • 5 tbsp water
  • pinch salt

Breading

  • 100 g panko bread crumbs

Other ingredients

  • 1 head cauliflower
  • 150 ml sunflower oil (for frying)
  • 1/2 cucumber
  • 1/4 red onion
  • 250 g kidney beans
  • 2 tbsp apple cider vinegar
  • 1 tsp cumin
  • pinch salt
  • 1 avocado
  • 10 cherry tomatoes
  • 15 g fresh coriander
  • 1/2 lemon
  • 2 wraps  

Instructions
 

  • Blanch the cauliflower:
    Fill and boil the kettle. In a medium-sized saucepan, add the boiled water and a generous pinch of salt.
    Drop in the cauliflower florets and blanch for 5-6 minutes until ¾ cooked. Drain and leave to cool.
  • Make the sauce:
    In a tall glass or jar, mix all the sauce ingredients—ginger, garlic, diced red chilli, tahini, black pepper, apple cider vinegar, tamari, maple syrup, tomato paste, water, and a pinch of salt.
  • Prepare the batter:
    In a wide bowl, mix together the flour, smoked paprika, oat milk, and a pinch of salt. Stir in half of the sauce to form a smooth batter.
  • Prepare the breading:
    In another wide bowl, place the panko bread crumbs.
  • Set up the assembly line:
    Arrange the blanched cauliflower, batter, and breadcrumbs in a line.
    Have a plate with paper towels ready to place the fried cauliflower on.
  • Fry the cauliflower:
    Heat the sunflower oil in a medium-sized saucepan on high heat. Once hot, reduce to medium heat.
    In small batches, dip each cauliflower floret into the batter, then coat with the breadcrumbs.
    Fry for 2-3 minutes, turning regularly, until golden. Transfer to a paper towel to absorb excess oil. Alternatively, bake at 180°C for 15 minutes.
  • Make the bean salad:
    In a large bowl, combine the diced cucumber, diced red onion, kidney beans, apple cider vinegar, cumin, and a pinch of salt. Set aside.
  • Prepare the guacamole:
    Remove the seed and skin of the avocado and chop the flesh.
    Add to a bowl with the cherry tomatoes, fresh coriander, a pinch of salt, a pinch of black pepper, and the juice of half a lemon. Mash together with a fork.
  • Assemble the burritos:
    Take a wrap and add a few spoonfuls of guacamole, bean salad, and 2-3 cauliflower florets.
    Drizzle with two spoonfuls of the extra sauce. Wrap the burrito and enjoy!
    Repeat with the remaining ingredients for the second burrito.
