Sesame Cauliflower

You are going to start with that fried cauliflower, courtesy of your very own air fryer.  If you do not own one, the traditional frying in a sauce pot of oil works just fine.  The difference is that you will need to make sure the oil is very hot so that browning can commence early.  You want this to happen to ensure that a bit of a bite remains in the cauliflower.

Sauce Ingredients & Preparation
1 T Tomato Paste (or 3 T Pasta Sauce)
1 pinch Smoked Paprika
2-3 T Brown Sugar
2 T Soy Sauce
2 T White Vinegar
2 t Corn Starch
1/4 c Water
1/4 t Sesame Seeds

Mix the corn starch and water to make slurry.  Then add all of the ingredients into a sauce pot, and bring the heat up to medium-high, stirring with a whisk.

You want the sauce to be thick enough to hold to the cauliflower but not like a syrup or glue.  If you need to thin it with a little water, do so at 1 T at a time.  Remove sauce from heat.  Let it stand for 5 minutes.  Toss your fried cauliflower into the sauce.  Plate and Serve with Sesame Seeds on top.
