Preparation

Step 1

Heat 1/4 c. olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat.
Once the flax "egg" has thickened, in a shallow dish, mix together the coconut, breadcrumbs, and herbs.
Dip the cauliflower florets into the "egg" mix first and then dip into the coconut mix, coating completely.
Do a test run to make sure that the oil is hot enough: Place one coated cauliflower bite into the skillet and if it makes that sizzle noise, you are good to go. Brown on each side (takes about 2-3 minutes per side).
Drain on a plate lined with a paper towel and season with salt immediately.
Serve with sauce of choice.
