As the Festive season arrives, so does the demand for quick party food and these Sticky Cauliflower Wings are definitely on repeat every now and then.
BBQ Cauliflower Wings / Sticky Cauliflower Wings / Baked Cauliflower Wings they are Awesome by any name!
They are my Fresh Take on a Classic Chicken Wing recipe using Karo® Corn Syrup and are approved by my Chicken Lover Gang 🙂
And what’s even more fun is that they are Baked and soooo easy to make using everyday kitchen ingredients.Sticky Cauliflower Wings – tossed in garlic-ginger sweet-spicy sauce made using Karo® Corn Syrup.
As I did mention above that these Sticky Cauliflower Wings make frequent appearances in our parties hence I get a lot of requests for the recipe.
So with the Festive season approaching, these baked Sticky Cauliflower Wings would make a quick appetizer for big batches too.
How to Make Sticky Cauliflower Wings
They are extremely easy to make and I’m diving the process in 3 further easy steps:
1: Making the Sticky Sauce ( which is Everything!!!! )
2: Making the Cauliflower Wings shaped Florets
3: Batter
Let’s start by making the Sticky Spicy Sauce:
The sauce is what adds that ‘Pow-Wow’ flavor to these baked wings.
It’s a mix of store-bought hot sauce with ginger-garlic spices and Karo® Corn Syrup.
I love using Karo® Corn Syrup for such recipes as it has a smooth and light texture that lets other ingredients in recipe shine through.
Also, the Corn syrup adds that extra shine/gloss to the cauliflower wings.
Karo is consistent with their product quality, hence I love using them without even a second thought as I know whatever I make would taste amazing!!
** of course if I follow the right ingredients and process 😉
Baking the Cauliflower Wings shaped Florets:
This is an equally important step as this literally breaks or makes your wings recipe!!
The florets NEED to be cut chunkier and with tips on each floret.
Hence we get that ‘Wing Kind of Shape’ .
Batter – How to make the batter / How thick or thin the batter should be:
After a lot of hits and trials, we finally found the BEST Batter for the Wings!!
It’s neither very thick nor very thing but should evenly coat the back of the spoon without dripping.
This is an extremely Important Step to achieve the best one.
What it does is, it gently coats each cauliflower floret enough for it to bake and taste perfectly crisp.
So, just follow the steps given below to make the Perfect batter and then evenly coat each floret in it.
Then dab the coated floret in a breadcrumb mix and place it on a baking tray.
I suggest coating each floret separately in breadcrumbs cause if we do it all together, it won’t evenly coat all the florets.
Place the coated cauliflower florets on the baking tray (please give some space between each floret).
Bake as per the instructions below and your Golden, Crispy Cauliflower Florets are ready in 15 minutes.
Once, they are ready, simply toss them in the Sticky-Spicy saucy mix and coat the sauce evenly on each wing.
That’s how my friends you get this lip-smacking, finger-licking ‘ Sticky Cauliflower Wings ‘ ready at home.
There’s one thing you should always remember: Make Tons of Extra as they go out real quick!
