Sticky Sesame Cauliflower Wings

Une tuerie, une réussite, la gourmandise avec des sommités tendres c'est super. La recette demande quand même pas mal de préparation, mais ça en vaut vraiment la peine

I can’t stop eating this. It was amazing.

It was time consuming but worth it! Loved it!

A bit of work to prepare, but worth it! Made it twice now, with big success both times.

As always- the recepie is a winner in my family but we ALWAYS at least double the amount of ingredients for the glaze. Somehow it never seems to be enough for us in the original recipes

These cauliflower wings were amazing! Crispy, flavorful, and the glaze was perfect. Some even looked like real wings, definitely a hit!

Yayy thanks for sharing the love, Maxine 🙌

Delicious!

Super tasty! Even my picky daughter ate them.

I usually make a similar recipe with tofu instead of cauliflower, but the tofu is not coated in batter/breadcrumbs so it is a much quicker recipe. However, my husband is not a tofu fan - this alternative just made his afternoon (and mine)!

Aww so glad that the sticky sesame cauli wings were enjoyed by you both, Adrianana 🫶✨

Usually not a fan of cauliflower, but this was very delicious!

So delicious! A new household favourite. Made these with some rice and pan friend kale and edamame for a bit of green and it went down a treat. Definitely a bit more time consuming than other recipes but well worth the effort!

So glad it was worth it, Jody, it means a bunch 😃

These were delicious! Great texture and taste. Will make again.

Question for PUL.
Could these be cooked in an Air Fryer? Trying to avoid the use of the oven.

PUL Team - March 9, 2024, 1:23 a.m.

Hey Nancy, we haven't tried but imagine you could! Just be sure to adjust the temp or frying time based on your air fryer 😊

Another five star recipe! These were absolutely delicious.

Amazing!

Texture was great, glazing could have had a better balance.

Best way to eat a cauliflower!!!! Delicious!

Ok so, the recipe took me FOREVER to cook and at the end my kitchen was a mess 😂. Bit in the end it was totally worth it because the taste was amazing (AND the son ate all his cauliflower saying it did not taste like cauliflower 😆). I put 4 stars because it is a little bit long to do (can’t do it on the week days when everything is so frantic) but the taste worths a 5 !❤️

Hey julie, thanks for taking the time to leave the review! We're glad that the cauliflower wings were enjoyed after all the effort 🥰

I am annoyed that I didn't read the instructions. I just read the ingredients list and added all the batter ingredients, including breadcrumbs. I couldn't figure out why I needed to triple the water in my recipe until I got to the later steps. So I used that batter and omitted the coating in breadcrumb step. Needless to say the cauliflower didn't have that bready finish. But the glaze is good. Silly me. But I do think there is opportunity to list the breadcrumbs in a separate step, as opposed to with the wet batter step. Or atleast in a separate paragraph. End of long day, meant I didn't read every line word for word. So I do take accountablity for my oversight.

Hey Nicole, thanks for sharing your experience with the cauliflower wings! We've all had those days, and your feedback is so appreciated to help us improve. Listing breadcrumbs separately in the instructions is a great suggestion for clarity.

Wow, the recipe has been adjusted already! Thank you so much for listening to your users. 🧡

This looks delicious! Just wondering if oven temperatures recommended are for fan-forced cooking?

PUL Team - Dec. 21, 2023, 7:53 a.m.

Hey Hope! Our oven has top-bottom heating without a fan, so if you use a setting with a fan the cauliflower may cook more quickly - hope this helps! ☺️

Hope - Dec. 21, 2023, 8:13 a.m.

Very helpful, thank you! Would the same apply for all your recipes, e.g. baking your cupcakes?

PUL Team - Dec. 21, 2023, 6:20 p.m.

Yes, we're actually in the process of adding this as a note to all of our oven recipes for clarity 🙌

Wow. Made it again last night, but instead of putting it in the oven for the last step we put it on the braai (What we call a barbecue in South Africa).

Both the oven version and the braai were a hit. My pregnant friend even requested that I bring this as the meal-gift after the baby is born.

The only complaint was that I was made too little. This is really one of the best sides ever.
Would highly recommend.

PUL Team - Dec. 15, 2023, 9:13 p.m.

We're so thrilled to hear that both the oven and braai grill versions were hits, Karne! What a creative twist, and it's heartwarming to know your friend already has meal requests for after the little one arrives 😃✨

I loooved the recipe ! And my friend too !!!!
Fantastic ! Congratulations !

Just one thing : I have still a lot of sauce left… I am a bit surprised to read in the comments that people were running out of it… but comments date back from a few weeks ago : maybe PUL changed the quantities? But now it is way too much, even though my cauliflower was big !
Any other recipe with that sauce is welcomed 👍😊

PUL Team - Dec. 8, 2023, 10:10 p.m.

Hey Laura, aww we're so thrilled that the cauliflower wings were enjoyed by you and your friends! We suspect the difference could be due to the size of the head of cauliflower, so we've just re-tested this recipe and added the gram amount we used for the cauliflower (870g) and also modified the sauce amount accordingly. I hope this helps in case you try it out again - thanks so much for helping us improve what we do! 🤗

Omg!! This came out so so WELL!!!! 🤩🤩🤩 I’m so freakin excited. Tastes so good!! Omg! I’m eating this now and had to drop a comment 😄. Thank you so so much PUL Team!!! 🫂🫂

Whoop whoop! We're so happy that the cauliflower wings were enjoyed, Nsedu 😊

One of the best cauliflower recipes that I've tried! So yummy and gooey! I will use less flour mixture next time.

PUL Team - Oct. 27, 2023, 6:29 p.m.

Such a big compliment, Nayun, thanks for taking the time to share your experience with the cauliflower wings 🤗

I just tried then and they turned out absolutely delicious! Will definitely make them again, but next time I’d have to make more sauce. Even though I only had 3/4 of a cauliflower head, I would’ve needed double the amount of sauce to cover them evenly. However, this is gonna be a new go to recipe! 🥰

PUL Team - Sept. 5, 2023, 7:07 a.m.

Hey Joelina, we're so glad the recipe was enjoyed and appreciate the feedback! We've just bumped up the sauce ratio is a bit more so hopefully this helps if you try it again 😊

These SLAP!!! Very delicious and the double bake really creates a meaty texture. I was hot, tired and overworked so I didn’t mKe a side. I will with the left overs. I ran a little short on sauce but I am sure that was more a me error. I will make more for leftovers. Do make this it’s worth the effort. I just want to say my kitchen is literally auditioning for a ring in hell. So all this cooking has been fun and worth the sweating 😊🤤

PUL Team - Aug. 17, 2023, 4:29 a.m.

Woop woop! We appreciate the glowing review so much, Andrea 🙌 we've heard another review about there not being quite enough sauce, so we've just adjusted it to ensure the wings are nice and saucy - thanks so much for helping us improve what we do!

Absolutely amazing!! The texture of the cauliflower with the breading is perfection. One of the best dishes I have ever made! Will be making this again

Sooo good! Tastes just like chicken to me but better! Wish I could put a picture, Whole family including kids loved them!
The only thing I did different is I had to make 2 batches of sticky sauce because it wasn’t enough to coat the cauliflower.

PUL Team - Aug. 15, 2023, 11:04 p.m.

Hello can I use chickpea flour? Thanks I’m advance.

PUL Team - Aug. 14, 2023, 2:46 a.m.

Hey Andrea, we haven't tested it out but imagine you could use chickpea flour instead of all-purpose to coat the cauliflower. It might alter the texture of the final dish, and also alter the taste a bit - but do let us know how it goes if you try it out 🙂

I didn’t have all-purpose flower at home so I used whole wheat flower instead. Didn’t bother at all and a huge plus on the healthy side. Soooo delicious!

Delicious!
