Instructions

1Heat the oil in a large frying pan over medium heat until shimmering. Add the onion and 1 teaspoon of the salt and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 6 minutes. Add the garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute.
2Add the curry paste, stirring to coat the onions, and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add the coconut milk, water, soy sauce, and remaining 1/2 teaspoon of salt, stir to combine, and bring to a lively simmer.
3Add the cauliflower, chickpeas, and green beans and stir to combine. Reduce the heat to medium low, cover with a tightfitting lid, and simmer, stirring occasionally, until the cauliflower is just tender, about 8 to 10 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the basil leaves and lime juice. Taste and season with more salt as needed. Serve with steamed rice.

Whether you’re looking for plant-based alternatives to replace conventional chicken or just want to eat a little healthier once in a while, these baked vegan cauliflower bites are incredibly crunchy and delicious—and way better for you than deep-fried poultry (but you’ll never miss the real-thing wings). A triple dredge in flour, a chia egg, and a spiced corn flake cereal coating means these bake to crunchy perfection on a sheet pan. The tangy vegan buffalo sauce adds another layer of deliciousness. Serve with our Vegan Blue Cheese Sauce for dipping! And don’t forget the celery. Vegan Buffalo Cauliflower Recipe and Vegan Blue Cheese Sauce Recipe
