Ingredients • 1 medium cauliflower, cut into florets • 3 tablespoons olive oil (or any cooking oil) • 4–5 garlic cloves, thinly sliced • 2 tablespoons soy sauce • 1 tablespoon chili sauce (like Sriracha or any hot sauce) • 1 tablespoon oyster sauce (optional for richer flavor) • 1 teaspoon honey or brown sugar • ½ teaspoon paprika or chili flakes (adjust to spice preference) • Salt to taste • Freshly ground black pepper • 2–3 green onions, chopped • Optional: small squeeze of lemon or lime juice for freshness Instructions 1. Preheat oven or pan: Preheat your oven to 220°C (425°F). If pan-frying, use a large non-stick pan or wok over medium-high heat. 2. Prepare cauliflower: Wash and thoroughly dry the cauliflower florets. 3. Make the sauce: In a small bowl, mix soy sauce, chili sauce, oyster sauce, honey, paprika, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Set aside. 4. Cook cauliflower: Toss the cauliflower in oil and a bit of salt. • For roasting: Spread on a baking sheet and roast 25–30 minutes, turning halfway until golden and crispy. • For pan-frying: Fry in batches until golden brown and tender. 5. Sauté garlic and sauce: In a separate pan, heat 1 tablespoon oil over medium heat. Add sliced garlic and sauté until golden brown (don’t burn it). Pour in the sauce mixture and cook for 30–40 seconds until it slightly thickens. 6. Combine everything: Add the roasted or fried cauliflower to the pan and toss to coat evenly. Add green onions and stir well for 1–2 minutes. 7. Finish and serve: Taste and adjust seasoning if needed. Serve warm as a side dish or a light main. - @mediterranean_recipes
