BUFFALO CAULIFLOWER SANDWICH

Steps:

• Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and preheat your oven to 450°F.
• Cut your head of cauliflower in half and then cut 2 x 1/2 inch steaks from each of the sides. Trim off an green leaves at the base, but leave most of the stem in tact. You can use the remaining cauliflower to make buffalo wings or just use it in another recipe like our mushroom sage cauliflower risotto. Also roasting it in the oven with sea salt, pepper, and olive oil is really nice too.
• tip: you could cut the cauliflower steaks in half to make 4 smaller, slider style sandwiches.
• Mix the flour, non-dairy milk, water, spices, and seasoning into a bowl with a whisk until well combined. Transfer this mixture to a wide shallow baking dish that will fit your cauliflower steaks. Dredge the steaks through the batter and use your hands to coat them quite well getting in all the crevices. Place the battered cauliflower steaks onto the parchment lined baking sheet and bake for 25 minutes Meanwhile, prepare the ranch sauce and buffalo sauce.
• For ranch dressing:.
• In a bowl whisk all the ingredients together. Refrigerate until you're ready to assemble the sandwiches.
• Just before the cauliflower is finished baking, melt the vegan butter and whisk it into the hot sauce in a shallow dish you can dredge the cauliflower steaks in once again. Remove the cauliflower from the oven. You may want to let them cool so you can handle them. Also you might need to replace your parchment paper if it's really soaked through or burned quite a bit.
• Dredge the cauliflower steaks through the buffalo sauce making sure to coat them evenly. Bake again on a parchment lined baking sheet for 25 mins at 450°F.
• To assemble the sandwiches spread ranch on both sides of a toasted kaiser, then lay down the buffalo cauliflower steak on the bottom, add red onion slices, lettuce, and thick cut tomato slices.

ROASTED CAULIFLOWER STEAKS WITH STEAK SAUCE

Steps:

• For the steaks: Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and spray with cooking spray.
• Remove the outer leaves from the cauliflower and trim the stem to 1 inch. Resting on the stem, slice the cauliflower in half lengthwise, from top to bottom. Trim the round outer edge of each piece so both sides are flat, creating two or three approximately 2-inch steaks. Cut the trimmed bits in half into mini steaks.
• Thoroughly rub the steaks and mini steaks all over on both sides with the oil. Combine the paprika, 2 teaspoons salt and 1 teaspoon pepper in a small bowl and sprinkle on both sides of the steaks. Place on the prepared baking sheet and bake, flipping halfway through, until tender and browned, about 30 minutes.
• Meanwhile, make the steak sauce.
• For the steak sauce: Put the raisins in a medium bowl, cover with boiling water and allow to soak until soft, 10 to 15 minutes.
• Heat the oil in a medium skillet over medium heat. Add the onions, sprinkle with salt and cook, stirring occasionally, until very soft and translucent, 5 minutes. Stir in the tomato paste and cook, stirring constantly so it doesn't burn, until it releases its oil, about 5 minutes.
• Drain the soaked raisins. Add the soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce and half of the soaked raisins, and cook over low heat, scraping up the browned bits from the bottom of the skillet, until just simmering. Taste and add pepper and salt if desired (the soy contains a lot of salt so add with caution).
• Pour the sauce into the carafe of a mini blender, add the remaining half of the soaked raisins and puree until smooth and there are no big chunks of raisin.
• If the sauce has cooled, reheat it in a small saucepan until warmed through. Pour the warm sauce over your steaks and garnish with the chopped parsley.
