  1. Heat the oven to 220°C, or 200°C fan, and line a large baking tray with baking paper.

  2. Whisk the flour, plant milk, paprika, garlic granules and salt in a bowl to make a smooth coating. Put the panko in a second bowl.

  3. Dip each cauliflower floret in the coating, then roll it in panko. Arrange the pieces on the tray with space between them and mist with cooking oil.

  4. Bake for 20 minutes, turn the florets, mist again and bake for 10 minutes more until crisp and golden.

  5. Stir the mayonnaise, sriracha, maple syrup and lime juice together. Toss or drizzle the sauce over the hot cauliflower and finish with spring onions and red chilli.
