INGREDIENTS

  • Vegetables

    • 2 pounds cauliflower florets

  • Fats and Oils

    • 2 tablespoons olive oil

  • Seasonings

    • 🧂 3/4 teaspoon salt, divided
    • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

  • Sauces and Sweeteners

    • 1/2 cup honey
    • 3 tablespoons gochujang
    • 1 tablespoon brown sugar
    • 1 tablespoon soy sauce

  • Fruits and Aromatics

    • 🍋 1 teaspoon lemon juice
    • 1 teaspoon fresh ginger

STEPS

1

Preheat the air fryer to 400°F (200°C) according to manufacturer's instructions. Toss cauliflower florets with olive oil and 1/2 teaspoon of the salt in a large bowl to coat.

2

Working in batches if needed, arrange cauliflower bites in an even layer in the air fryer basket. Cook, turning halfway through, until tender and browned, about 10 minutes.

3

For the sauce, stir together honey, gochujang, brown sugar, soy sauce, lemon juice, ginger, black pepper, and the remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium heat, then reduce to low and simmer until glossy and thickened, about 5 minutes.

4

Transfer hot cauliflower bites to a large bowl and add 1/2 cup of the prepared sauce. Toss to coat evenly. Serve immediately with the remaining sauce and garnish with additional green onions, if desired.
