LET’S GET GOING
Preheat the oven to 200°C. Spread out the cauliflower pieces on a roasting tray, coat in oil, and season. Roast in the hot oven for 15-20 minutes until cooked through and starting to become crispy.
FLUFFY RICE & MAYO
Rinse the rice under cold water until it runs clear. (This prevents the rice from becoming stodgy.) Place in a pot with 250ml of fresh, salted water. Pop on a lid and place over a medium-high heat. Once boiling, reduce the heat and simmer for 15-20 minutes until the water has been absorbed and the rice is tender. Loosen the mayo with water in 5ml increments until drizzling consistency, season and set aside.
PICKLED VEG & ROAST NORI
In a bowl, add the radish rounds, diced cucumber, and julienne carrot. Toss through the pickling liquid until the veg is fully coated. Season and set aside to pickle for 10-15 minutes. Place the nori sheet in the hot oven (no need for a roasting tray) and roast for about 5 minutes until crispy. Remove on completion and set aside.
SEED-SATIONAL
Place the sesame seeds in a pan (large enough to fit the cauli) over a medium heat. Toast for 2-4 minutes until the white seeds are lightly browned, shifting occasionally. Remove from the pan on completion and set aside to cool. Once the rice is done, remove from the heat, fluff up with a fork and crumble over ¾ of the roasted nori. Mix to combine and set aside.
KOREAN FRIED CAULI
Return the pan to a medium heat. When hot, add the KFC sauce. Once boiling, turn off the heat and toss through the roasted cauli until fully coated. Cover to keep warm and set aside for serving. Drain the pickling liquid from the salad - lose it or reuse it!
YUM, YUM, YUMMY!
Plate up a generous helping of the nori rice. Top with the saucy, sweet and sticky Korean cauli and side with the pickled salad. Drizzle over the mayo and sprinkle over the sesame seeds and the remaining nori to taste. Wow, look at that!
