- This is your like ASMR(mumbles) moment
(upbeat music)
Welcome back.
I have been on this cake with cauliflower lately
and you guys were asking for some barbecue recipes.
So I thought, why not take a crowd favorite
which is cauliflower wings
and show you how to make them on the barbecue.
Hey guys, I'm Candace desubaj.
Welcome back, if you are new here.
Hi. Hello.
I make new videos twice a week.
I think you should subscribe.
You can do that by hitting that button right there
and the bell notification.
So you don't miss out on new videos every single week.
So like I was saying earlier, cauliflower is just
it's just been a thing that is always available
at the store right now.
I don't know why.
And it's something that I'm picking
up with every single grocery shop that I do.
And I've been really playing around
with different ways of cooking it.
Today, I thought I'd show you how to
make a Korean barbecue inspired cauliflower wings, skewers.
It's a whole mouthful
Korean barbecue inspired cauliflower skewers.
So I'm using a couple
of different techniques that I've been playing with earlier.
I'm going to show you the easiest way
in the world to make kind of
like a cheater Korean barbecue sauce.
You can prep the stuff ahead of time
and then barbecue it when all your friends are here
and is most of the work's already done.
And then you don't have to worry about things stuck
in front of the barbecue instead of mingling.
All right, So the first little note that I want to make sure
that you are aware of is with your skewers.
You really want to make sure that you've soaked them
or else they're just going to light on fire.
It's a barbecue.
This is wood, this is just how it works.
Unless you have those like metal skewers that are reusable.
I just have these bamboo skewers as little
as an hour is fine.
I just kind of do it overnight.
It's fine.
When we are cutting up our cauliflower
you want them to be kind of like chicken wing size.
So whether it's like a wing or a drumstick, you know
a little bit bigger, but not so big
that it's like fried chicken
because we are going to bake these first
and they'll tend to like shrink.
For our Korean barbecue sauce,
You can use whatever your favorite barbecue sauce is.
This one is sweet, ray something.
Remember the name of it, but I use it all the time.
And that to gather with that
I'm going to mix soy sauce or tamari
and then also a little bit of rice vinegar.
And that gives you that kind of Korean barbecue ask flavor.
This is not the correct way to make Korean barbecue at all.
Korean barbecue made from scratch is the best
but I wanted to give you guys some quick and easy hacks.
So you're spending more time outside
and less time in the kitchen.
And then on our skewers
we are going to thread each cauliflower
and then some red onion.
I just, it looks really pretty
and I love barbecued red onion and for garnish
We of course have some green onion and also some parsley.
Okay so the first thing we are going to do
is create a batter then I'm going to dip my cauliflower
in and then we're going to bake them the first step.
Yes. Before barbecuing is baking for this recipe.
So I have just some all-purpose flour, Bob's red mill
one to one gluten-free flour is really great.
If you are gluten free, you can just use that, but I'm not.
So I'm fine using this.
For our spices
We are going to use salt, garlic powder
and then also some pepper for our batter liquid.
Again, we are using unsweetened soy milk
because that's my favorite
for any sort of baking or cooking
because if, because of its high protein content
and it's just very, very stable.
Now I'm not seasoning this batter too too much
because we are going to make a very
very flavorful sauce afterwards.
And that's really where you want the flavor.
So instead of salting this and then also having the salt
and everything from the Korean style
barbecue sauce, it's just, it's a lot.
And it's really easy to over season.
It mix that around and make sure most
of the lumps are gone a couple here and there.
Fine. It's not a big deal.
Now I'm just going to pour in my cauliflower
give it a toss and throw it onto a pan.
Okay, So to make our kind
of Korean barbecue inspired barbecue sauce
I am going to just heat
up my pan kind of medium high as perfect.
And I'm going to start with my garlic.
So I'll just add that right to your sauce pan
and then whatever barbecue sauce is your favorite
but a lot of barbecue sauces are vegan.
Just again, look at their the ingredients
and then we are going to add some soy sauce.
If you are gluten free
you can also do gluten-free tamari.
So this recipe is actually super easy to make.
Gluten-free just by saying substituting gluten-free tamari
and then also gluten-free flour.
And then to kind of cut the sweetness
from the barbecue sauce.
Go ahead to add a little bit of rice wine vinegar.
Okay so we are going to cook this just until it thickens.
So probably no more than about five minutes.
We just wanted to thicken up a little
these are ready to go.
This is what I mean when I say golden brown.
This is just so nice and Brown and crispy.
You can hear
that crispiness.
So I liked it.
You just kind of loosen them from the pan a little bit.
So because we are using onions as well
because I have this hot pan
and I want to soften them up a little bit.
I am just going to
place the onions right
in the pan as well.
And that'll just, I kind of soften them
up while the cauliflower is cooling.
So what I did was I left the bulb intact
and then cut them into wedges.
So I can kind of keep a lot
of them together and they don't fall apart.
I let these cool down a little bit.
I just kind of pushed them all together
in one straight line.
Because when I drizzle this
I want to get the barbecue sauce, mostly
onto the cauliflower and not waste a bunch onto the pan.
So I'm just going to go ahead
and start here and go all the way back.
And you want to make sure that you are coating them well
but you're saving some of this barbecue sauce for serving.
You can also kind of give them a toss
which I'm going to do, but you don't have to, but this way
at least I know that, you know
the bottom's getting some tops, getting some
you can kind of there's some on the pan
you can kind of move it around.
I can smell the aroma.
I'm going to quickly wash my hands.
And then I'm going to sprinkle some sesame seeds
and We can skewer them.
All right so now I'm just adding my sesame seeds.
We are going to add some as a garnish afterward as well
but when you add them
to the cauliflower, before you barbecue
then they kind of get this like really nice barbecue
smoky flavor to them.
Okay. So, I mean, if you've made any sort of kebab or skewer
you could just do the same thing.
I like to add like two or three, depending
on how big they are and then a piece
of onion on the end.
So way you want to skewer them I don't really care.
Live your fantasy.
You can do them this way.
You can do them other way.
All right So depending on how big your skewers are
that will kind of determine how many you're putting on.
So it's usually you know three to four.
See how they kind of look like chicken skewers.
That's what we want.
All right welcome to my backyard.
I have this great barbecue.
It actually was gifted to me as part of a promo that I did
which you probably saw on my Instagram.
If you don't have a non-stick barbecue
I have non-stick cast iron.
You don't, you can definitely like don't add too much oil
but like do try to grease it a little bit.
So my barbecue is kind of between three 50 and 400 and I'm
don't do what I'm doing, but you can just toss those
on there and you are going to let them grill
for about four minutes, turning them once.
Okay. So it's been about four minutes.
So I'm going to go ahead and start to flip them.
Ooh, that char is so good.
Is there like a good way to flip skewers?
I don't know.
All right,
so we have our delicious barbecued cauliflower.
So this was about five minutes and total cooking time.
So like two and a half minutes, each side
this recipe is great for like a side.
If you want this to be kind of more of a main
then I would double up on the recipe.
If you have like a family of four, for example, you know
place it onto a serving plate
got to go with the sesame first.
So some fresh sesame to go with that now.
Nice and smoky sesame.
I want it to add some green onion
also known as scallions to some places in the world
and just love kind of the flavor combination of those.
And then this is completely optional.
You can also add parsley or just one or the other.
Now this is not Korean and they wouldn't
I don't think serve that with parsley
but I just like that really Kirby flavor that parsley has
and it just works really nicely together.
(upbeat music)
All right, guys, there, you have it.
Delicious Korean barbecue inspired cauliflower wings
skewers. That's quite the mouthful
and that's gonna be a mouthful(laughing)
These are delicious.
Again, depending on how many people you want to serve.
This recipe is great for like four people as a side.
If you want it to be more
of a main that you can do a little bit more.
Hmm.
Oh my gosh know
it's just like it's candied a little bit.
It's smoked from the barbecue.
Serve it with a little bit of extra barbecue sauce
on the side for the people that like extra saucy, Oh God
this is your like ASMR(mumbles) moment.
So if people are going to hit that, I'm so sorry.
This is delicious.
You should make it.
You should do a double batch, but then half
of them make like normal wings for like another night.
They'd be like these recipes where I take a dish
like cauliflower wings and show you a new way to
make them give this video a big thumbs up.
