Instructions

  1. 1

    Cut the cauliflower in large florets. Transfer to a large bowl and set aside.

  2. 2

    In a small bowl, combine the celery salt, oregano, cumin, onion powder, garlic powder, paprika, cayenne, salt, and pepper. Mix well.

  3. 3

    In a medium bowl, add half of the spice mix to the flour.

  4. 4

    Add the cornstarch and mix.

  5. 5

    In a separate medium bowl, combine the soy milk, apple cider vinegar, and hot sauce. Whisk.

    Pour the remaining spice mix over the cauliflower florets and mix.

    Heat the vegetable oil in a large pan until it reaches 350°F (180°C).

    Toss each cauliflower floret in the flour mixture until well-coated, shaking off any excess. Dip them back in the remaining soy milk mixture in the bowl where they marinated, then again in the flour mixture.
