A true Baja California experience requires sunny, breezy patios and a plate of tacos. We aimed to re-create the feel of a Baja-style fish taco in our home kitchen, instead bringing veggies to the forefront.<\/p>\n

We thought that battered cauliflower bites, drizzled with a cool and creamy vegan sauce, were the perfect stand-in for the fish. We wanted to avoid the mess of deep-frying, so we cut the cauliflower into large florets and roasted them.<\/p>\n

To boost their flavour, we dunked the pieces in canned coconut milk seasoned with garlic and spices and then rolled them in a mixture of panko bread crumbs and shredded coconut. Not only did this add richness and the flavours of a cabana-shaded getaway, but it also mimicked the crisp exterior texture of batter-fried fish.<\/p>\n

A bed of crunchy slaw with juicy mango and spicy jalapeno provided the perfect balance of sweetness and heat.<\/p>\n

By using equal parts vegan mayonnaise and dairy-free sour cream, plus cilantro and a bit of lime zest, we were able to whip up a vegan crema to top it all off. Just add cerveza and sunshine. For a spicier slaw, mince and add the jalapeno ribs and seeds. Serve with lime wedges.<\/p>\n
