Ingredients
  

For the Cauliflower

  • 1 large head cauliflower cut into florets
  • 4 tbsp plain flour
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • ½ tsp onion powder
  • 1 tsp sea salt
  • 1 tbsp smoked paprika
  • 4 tbsp plant based milk

For the Vegan Mayonnaise (Vegenaise)

  • 4 tbsp Follow Your Heart Avocado Oil Vegenaise
  • 1/2 small lime squeezed

Serve With

  • 8 small taco shells (or soft tortillas toasted)

Quick Pickle Recipe

  • finely sliced red onion
  • 1 tsp apple cider vinegar
  • ½ cup water
  • 1 tbsp sugar
  • 1/2 tsp salt

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 200ºC

For the cauliflower

  • Mix the dry ingredients together in a large mixing bowl, stir in the oat milk and whisk together then add the cauliflower florets and coat in the mix
  • Place the coated cauliflower apart on a greased baking tray and bake for around 40 minutes (turn after 20 minutes to allow each side to get crispy)
  • Prepare the tacos whilst the cauliflower cooks by pickling the red onion, toasting the wraps, filling with lettuce or whatever filling you've chosen to go with
  • To make the mayo dressing, simply mix in the lime juice with the vegenaise
  • Once baked and crispy, assemble the tacos, top with the quick pickled onion with a generous layer of the Follow Your Heart lime infused vegenaise

Notes

  • If pickling the red onions, prep this step first by thinly slicing the red onion then pickling in a jar mixed with the vinegar, water, salt and sugar.
  • The texture of the batter should be that of a pancake, runny but thick enough that it'll coat the cauliflower without leaving the top bare (adjust this by simply adding a little more flour or oat milk depending on whether it's too thick or thin)
  • You can fill these tacos with any salad you have available, lettuce, spinach, rocket, you name it! I've sprinkled sesame seeds on top however this isn't essential.
