Original recipe by bbcgoodfood.com

Ingredients

  • 1 tbsp olive oil, plus extra for the baking sheet
  • 75 g plain flour
  • 1 tbsp paprika
  • 200 g low-fat natural yogurt
  • 265 g cauliflower florets
  • 25 -50ml hot sauce (depending on how much heat you prefer)
  • 2 tsp honey
  • 1 lime, zested and juiced
  • 150 g salad leaves
  • 250 g lentils, cooked

Steps

  1. Heat the oven to 220C/200C fan/gas 7. Oil and line a baking sheet with non-stick baking parchment. Put the flour, paprika and a big pinch of salt in a bowl and whisk in the yogurt and 50ml water until you have a smooth batter. Toss in the cauliflower florets until coated and spread out in an even layer on the baking sheet.
  2. Bake for 20-25 mins, tossing halfway through, until crisp and golden. Put the hot sauce and 1 tsp of the honey in a pan to heat up, toss the cauliflower in the mixture, put back on the tray and cook for about 5-8 mins more.
  3. Meanwhile, whisk together most of the lime zest and all the juice, the remaining 1 tsp honey and 1 tbsp olive oil in a large bowl, and toss in the salad leaves and lentils. Divide between two plates and top with the cauliflower wings and the remaining lime zest, if you like.
