Roasted Whole Cauliflower w/ Tahini Yoghurt + Chermoula
A spectacular yet simple dish from my cookbook Earth To Table of roasted cauliflower that's complimented with creamy yogurt and a vibrant, lemony and herbacceous chermoula dressing. The addition of pickled red onion finishes the meal perfectly.

INGREDIENTS

1 whole cauliflower

2 red onions, thinly sliced

2 lemons, juiced

500 ml (2 cups/16 fl oz) thick Greek yoghurt

2 tablespoons tahini pomegranate and pistachio to garnish

Grove Avocado Oil to drizzle

generous pinch of sea salt

chermoula (from P223 Earth To Table)

METHOD

PREHEAT your oven to 200°C (400°F) fan-forced.

DRIZZLE cauliflower with a generous amount of avocado oil and season with sea salt.

ROAST for 45 minutes until golden and slightly charred on the surface, then remove from the oven. Combine red onion, the juice of 2 lemons and a pinch of salt. Massage through and allow to pickle for 15 minutes.

COMBINE yoghurt and tahini then spread onto a serving platter and top with the whole roasted cauliflower.

DRIZZLE over the chermoula dressing and garnish with pickled red onion, pomegranate and pistachio. Serve and enjoy.

NOTES & INSPIRATION

Cranberries can be used in place of pomegranate. Add a handful of chopped green olives and capers. Serve with yoghurt flat bread or with good crusty rye sourdough.
