Recipe serves 3

Ingredients

  • 1 large head Cauliflower
  • 1 tablespoon Olive oil
  • 3 tablespoons Low‑sodium soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons Erythritol
  • 2 cloves Garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon Fresh ginger, grated
  • 1 teaspoon Chinese five‑spice powder
  • 1 tablespoon Apple cider vinegar

Instructions

  1. 1

    Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium‑high heat and lightly oil the grates.

  2. 2

    Trim the cauliflower and cut it into 1‑inch‑thick steaks, aiming for three large pieces.

  3. 3

    In a small bowl whisk together soy sauce, olive oil, erythritol, minced garlic, grated ginger, five‑spice powder, and apple cider vinegar to form the Char Siu glaze.

  4. 4

    Brush both sides of each cauliflower steak generously with the glaze, reserving any leftover glaze for basting.

  5. 5

    Grill the steaks for about 8‑10 minutes per side, brushing with additional glaze halfway through, until they are tender, lightly charred, and the glaze is caramelized.

  6. 6

    Transfer the steaks to a serving platter, drizzle with any remaining glaze, and serve immediately.
