What Is Korean Fried Cauliflower?
Korean Fried Cauliflower takes inspiration from Korean fried chicken — famous for its ultra-crispy coating and sweet-spicy glaze. Instead of chicken, we use cauliflower florets, which turn out just as satisfying thanks to the air fryer. The gochujang sauce gives it that fiery, umami kick, while a drizzle of honey and sesame oil rounds out the heat with caramelized depth.
The best part? No deep frying, no oil splatter — just 100% crunch with 90% less oil.
