How To MakeDiet Type: Plant-based
Shopping List
- 1 medium head of cauliflower
- olive oil, to taste
- salt and pepper, to taste
- tahini, to taste (optional, for drizzling — we like this brand)
Instructions
- Step 1: Slightly trim the base of the cauliflower, but keep the smaller leaves intact.
- Step 2: Bring a large pot a very salted water to a rolling boil. Carefully add the whole cauliflower, it should be almost fully submerged. Boil the cauliflower, covered, for 10 minutes. A small cauliflower will only need about 7 minutes.
- Step 3: Remove the cauliflower from the water and let it drain in a colander for several minutes. Preheat the oven to 500 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Step 4: Place the cooled cauliflower on a baking sheet. Drizzle some olive oil on a plate and then use your hands to rub the olive oil all over the cauliflower head. Sprinkle with salt.
- Step 5: Roast in the oven for 20 to 30 minutes, or until it is golden brown all over and slightly blackened in spots.
- Serve: Place the whole cauliflower on a plate and drizzle with a little more olive oil and/or tahini. A little flaky salt is nice here too. Cut in with a knife and enjoy.
