- 1 tablespoon Mustard

- 2 sticks / 250g Butter

How to make Buffalo cauliflower:
- Preheat oven to 450°F / 250°C
- Clean and cut up the cauliflower.
- Take the head into small florets.
- Get a bowl that’s big enough to house all the cauliflower. Otherwise it needs to be done in batches.
- Add paprika, garlic, and mustard. Sour cream can also be used instead or with the mustard.
- Put a lid on or get a big enough plate and shake wildly for a couple of minutes.
- We have done a great job when all the florets are evenly covered by the paprika.
- Place a parchment paper onto a baking tray and space out the coated florets.
- Put them into a 450°F / 250°C preheated oven for 20 minutes then start preparing the buffalo sauce.
- In a heat resistant cup measure out the butter, paprika and hot sauce.
- Melt the butter by placing the cup into the microwave for 30 sec or just put it next to the roasting buffalo cauliflowers for a minute.
- After 20 minutes in the oven, take the cauliflowers out.
- Brush them with the Buffalo Sauce.
- Put them back for another 20 minutes.
- Use the remaining Buffalo Sauce as a dip.
Enjoy!
