Preheat the oven to 200 C/180 C fan/gas 6. Cut your potatoes (skin on) into chips, then add them to a baking tray (or two) with the five-spice mix and a large drizzle of vegetable oil. If you have it, add 2 tsp sugar and lots of salt and pepper. Give everything a good mix up and put the tray(s) in the oven for 20-25 min or until golden and crisp.
Add the cornflour with 2 tbsp (3 tbsp) [4 tbsp] flour to a large bowl and stir in 80ml (120ml) [160ml] cold water until you are left with a smooth batter. Cut your cauliflower into small florets, then add the cauliflower florets to the batter and stir until they are evenly coated. Heat a large wide-based pan (preferably non-stick) with a very large drizzle of vegetable oil over a medium-high heat. Tip: Cooking for 2 will use 2 pans! Once very hot, add the coated cauliflower to the pan and cook for 10-12 min or until golden and crispy on the outside. Transfer the crispy cauliflower to a plate, set aside and reserve the pan for later.
Cut your pepper(s) in half (scrape the seeds and pith out with a teaspoon) and chop into small cubes. Peel (scrape the skin off with a teaspoon) and finely chop (or grate) your ginger. Peel and finely chop (or grate) your garlic. Finely slice your red chilli(es) into rounds. Trim, then finely slice your spring onion(s). Return the reserved pan to a medium-high heat with a drizzle of vegetable oil. Add the chopped pepper, chopped ginger and half of the chopped garlic (save the rest for later) and cook for 3-4 min or until fragrant. Meanwhile, add your soy sauce to a bowl with your honey, red chilli relish and Chinese rice wine - this is your sticky chilli sauce. Add the sticky chilli sauce to the pan and cook for 3 min or until the sauce begins to thicken and the pepper has softened. Once thickened, add the crispy cauliflower to the pan and cook for 1 min further until the cauliflower is coated in the sauce - this is your sticky cauliflower.
Serve the sticky cauliflower with the salt & pepper chips to the side. Enjoy!
