First, I have to let you know that my Husband Harvey totally gets most of the credit with this recipe because if it weren’t for his immense love for Asian food, I wouldn’t have fell in love with it the way that I did. Also, he took the time to test this recipe several times for me (hello, I’m currently making a baby and can only stand for so long lol), to make sure that you get the appropriate crispiness to hold onto the Black Peppercorn Sauce. He tried with multiple flours and different batters until we agreed on the right recipe to prevent soggy cauliflower. (Because remember, soggy = no bueno)

Black Peppercorn Garlic Sauce

This Black Peppercorn Garlic Sauce is more savory than sweet. However, the sweetness, is just the right amount so it doesn’t outshine the peppercorn or garlic. Now, if you want it to be sweeter, please feel free to add more sweet soy sauce.

Can you use Black Peppercorn Garlic Sauce in other dishes?

Yes, you can absolutely use this Black Peppercorn Garlic Sauce as you please. I enjoy this sauce with the following ingredients, and I swear that it never gets old:

Fried Cauliflower

When it comes to Fried Cauliflower, I swear there is an art to it. You want batter, but not too much that its overbearing. You want the cauliflower crispy, but you want to make sure that it doesn’t get soggy.

Tips for the perfect Crispy Fried Cauliflower

  • Make sure that your cauliflower is nice and dry before you began to batter it up.
  • Use medium to small size pieces of cauliflower.
  • Make sure your cooking oil is nice and hot before adding your cauliflower.
