Garlic Soy Roasted Cauliflower is a sweet and salty side dish that will get five stars from even the cauliflower haters! Oven roasted cauliflower meets a simple, gluten free and vegan friendly, sticky garlic soy sauce.

Ingredients

  • 1 head cauliflower (cut into small florets)
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • ⅓ cup tamari ((or soy sauce if not GF))
  • ¼ cup water
  • 2 large cloves garlic (minced)
  • 2 tbsp honey ((or maple/date syrup for vegan option))
  • 1 tsp sesame oil
  • 1 tsp sriracha
  • ¼ tsp ground ginger
  • 1 tbsp tapioca flour ((or arrowroot or cornstarch))
  • sesame seeds
  • green onion (chopped)

Directions

  1. 1

    Preheat oven to 425F. Add chopped cauliflower to a sheet pan and toss with oil. Spread out evenly on the pan so that none of the cauliflower are overlapping. Bake for 10-15 minutes, flip, and then bake for another 10-15 minutes or until tender and golden.

  2. 2

    While the cauliflower is baking, add all sauce ingredients (except for the tapioca flour) to a large pan over medium-low heat. Stir and let it cook for a few minutes until the honey is melted and the sauce is getting warm.

  3. 3

    Stir in the tapioca flour. Continue cooking the sauce, stirring occasionally, until it has thickened (about 5-10 minutes). 

  4. 4

    Once the sauce has thickened, add the roasted cauliflower to the pan. Toss the cauliflower in the sauce to coat it. 

  5. 5

    Serve with sesame seeds and chopped green onion!
