Make the cashew cream
In a blender, combine the soaked cashews, water, lemon juice, vinegar and salt. Blend on high until smooth and creamy, 2-3 minutes. Scrape into a bowl and, if desired, adjust flavor and consistency by whisking in additional lemon, salt or water. Cover and refrigerate. You can do this step in advance.

Flour the cauliflower
Combine the cauliflower and chickpea flour in a medium bowl. Toss until the florets are coated in the flour.
4 cups cauliflower florets
3 tablespoons chickpea flour
medium bowl
Coat the cauliflower
Scoop the cauliflower out of the bowl with the dry chickpea flour, leaving and discarding any residual dry flour left in the bottom of the bowl. Add the floured florets to the bowl with the chickpea batter and toss with a spatula until each floret is completely coated in batter.

Lay the cauliflower on the June Pan
Working one at a time, scoop the florets out of the bowl and arrange them on the prepared June Pan with a little space between each piece for air to circulate. Discard leftover batter.
Roast the cauliflower
Place the cauliflower on the middle shelf of the June Oven. Roast 12 minutes, until the coating has set and the cauliflower is tender. If desired, follow onscreen instructions to continue cooking until the coating is crispy.

Make the slaw
In a large bowl, combine the cabbage, jalapeño, green onions, cilantro, lemon juice, oil, salt and pepper. Toss to combine and side aside.
2½ cups shredded red cabbage
¼ cup sliced jalapenos
¼ cup sliced green onions
¼ cup chopped cilantro
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
½ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon black pepper

Remove the cauliflower and prepare the tortillas
When June notifies you that the cauliflower is ready, remove it from the June Oven and set aside. Confirm the number of tortillas using the button below (selecting 6 tortillas will work fine for heating 8 tortillas).
Warm the tortillas
Using tongs, carefully place the tortillas directly on the middle shelf of the June Oven. Overlapping is fine. Warm the tortillas until soft and heated through, about 4 minutes. When complete, wrap in a foil packet or place in a covered dish to keep warm.

Assemble and serve
Assemble the tacos by scooping the cauliflower into the warmed tortillas. Top with cashew cream and slaw and serve immediately.
