So far I tried making a flour based coating and frying it and I’ve tried frying it for 5 mins before putting it in the oven. Neither option was successful.

Maybe try searing it on high heat until it gets brown and crispy-ish on the outside and then put it in the oven? Breading it might be another option, but in both cases you're only going to get it semi-crispy on the outside - I think it has too much water content to crisp all the way through.

Edit: Haha, searched for "crispy cauliflower" and that's what came up: https://minimalistbaker.com/quick-crispy-cauliflower/

Yes this is one of the recipes I tried. Perhaps I need to make some adjustments and try again.
