Roast Purple Cauliflower with Lemon Tahini Dressing

Posted 2018-05-10 by Maddy Butler ⇒ follow

Purple cauliflower doesn't taste hugely different from normal cauliflower, but sure looks stunning on the plate. Paired with the tahini lemon sauce, it makes a really yummy salad. For the greens, I used celery greens, but rocket, baby spinach or a mix of small greens would work nicely too.

Preparation Time: 10 minutes
Cooking Time: 25-30 minutes
Serves: 4-8

Ingredients
Olive oil
1 head purple cauliflower
2 garlic cloves
1 small handful fresh greens

Dressing
2 tbsp tahini sauce
Juice of 1 lemon
2-4 tbsp water
1 tsp ground cumin
Salt and pepper

Method

Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F).

Separate the cauliflower into florets and lay out on a baking tray. Thinly slice the garlic and scatter over the cauliflower, then drizzle with oil.

Place in the oven for 25-30 minutes or until cooked through.

Meanwhile, prepare the dressing by mixing all the ingredients together in a small bowl. Adjust the water amount according to your liking, but it's good if it's runny enough, like a normal dressing.
