         Title: Crunchy Gochujang Cauliflower   
    Categories: Korean   
         Yield: 2 Servings   
      
         1    Cauliflower head;   
              - rough chopped   
         1 tb Vegetable base; +1 ts   
         3 tb Plant milk   
     2 1/2 c  Corn starch; +1 tb   
         1 tb Garlic powder   
         1 ts Black pepper   
         1 tb Regular soy sauce   
         1 tb Light soy sauce   
         1 ts Vegetarian oyster sauce   
         1 ts Mustard   
         1 ts Gochujang   
         2 tb Maple syrup   
         4 c  Vegetable oil; for frying   
         1 tb Extra virgin olive oil   
       1/4 c  Onion; chopped   
         5 cl Garlic; up to 6, minced   
         2    Red cabbage leaves; chopped   
         1    Carrot; chopped into very   
              - small pieces   
         2    Whole scallions; chopped   
       1/3 c  Vegetable broth   
       1/2 tb Sesame oil   
         1 tb Sesame seeds   
      
     Place cauliflower chunks into a large bowl. Add 1 tb of the vegetable   
     base (I like "Better than Boullion"), together with the plant milk.   
     Mix the cauliflower so that they are evenly coated and set the bowl   
     aside (you can also refrigerate it overnight).   
      
     To another large bowl, add 1 cup of corn starch (save the rest for   
     later), 1/2 tb of garlic powder, and 1/2 ts of black pepper. Stir   
     everything together with a whisk and set it aside.   
      
     Prepare the sauce in advance by whisking together the 1 ts of the   
     vegetable base, regular soy sauce, light soy sauce, vegetarian oyster   
     sauce, mustard, gochujang, maple syrup, and 1/2 tb of corn starch.   
      
     In a very large cast iron pan or deep fryer, bring the vegetable oil   
     to 350?F. While you are waiting for the oil to get hot, dredge some   
     of the cauliflower in the corn starch + garlic powder mixture. Make   
     sure that each chunk is thickly coated with the corn starch. You want   
     the cauliflower to be super dry.   
      
     Place the dredged cauliflower in the hot oil, ensuring not to crowd   
     the pan. You will have to work in batches and once the corn starch is   
     all used up, add the 2nd cup of corn starch, together with the garlic   
     powder and black pepper, so that you can continue to fully dredge   
     your cauliflower.   
      
     Fry your cauliflower for approximately 3 to 5 minutes, until the edges   
     begin to brown. Remove them from the oil and place them on a cooling   
     rack to drain the excess oil. Repeat for the remaining cauliflower.   
      
     Once all the cauliflower has been fried once, you can fry them all a   
     second time(without worrying about over-crowding the pan) for extra   
     crunch.   
      
     Once you have completed frying all your cauliflower, begin making the   
     sauce by adding extra virgin olive oil to a large pan over medium   
     high heat. When the oil is hot, add the garlic, onion, carrot,   
     cabbage, and scallions to the pan. Sautee the vegetables until the   
     onion starts to turn translucent, about 2 minutes.   
      
     Add the vegetable broth and cook for another 30 seconds. Then, stir   
     in the sauce you prepared earlier. Cook the sauce over medium high   
     heat for about 1 minute, until it gets thick.   
      
     Turn off the heat and pour the fried cauliflower into the sauce. Stir   
     the cauliflower gently until they are evenly coated. Drizzle them   
     with a the sesame oil and sprinkle the sesame seeds. Serve   
     immediately.
