- Blitz the bread to fine breadcrumbs in a food processor. Cut 2 x 2-3cm slices from the centre of each cauliflower, keeping the core intact. Save any trimmings to use at a later date.
- Divide the cornflour, soya milk and breadcrumbs between 3 separate bowls. Dip each cauliflower steak in the cornflour, followed by the soya milk and finally the breadcrumbs until evenly coated. Set aside on a plate.
- Heat the vegetable oil in a large frying pan and, working in batches if necessary, fry the cauliflower steaks for 3-4 mins on each side until golden and crisp. Season.
- For the garlic oil, warm the olive oil in a small pan with the garlic for 10 mins over a low heat until softened. Remove from the heat and stir through the lemon zest and parsley.
- Serve the cauliflower schnitzel topped with the warm garlic oil. Serve with lemon wedges on the side.
