Asilia’s Roasted Cauliflower
January 20th, 2024 . By Josh Stanley
In our opinion, there is a serious underappreciation for cauliflower. We don’t know why! If you haven’t tried crispy popcorn cauliflower, then your stomach hasn’t lived. Anyway, I digress… Every week, I cook a roast (and a pretty good one I might add). Roasted cauliflower is a staple to that roast. So the question that no one is asking – what recipe do I use? It’s a Hairy Bikers-inspired recipe with an Asilia twist. Here you go:
Timings:
Prep: 10 minutes
Cooking: 30 minutes
Ingredients:
- 1 large cauliflower, broken into florets
- 2 garlic cloves, finely chopped
- 3 tbsps of olive oil
- 1 lime, zest and juice.
- 1 tbsps. of turmeric powder
- 1 tbsps. of Asilia’s Turmeric Ginger Salt
- 25g/1oz Parmesan (or an alternative vegan hard cheese), grated
Optional:
- 100g of cashew nuts – I love cashew nuts
- Chopped Parsley
Step guide:
- Preheat the oven to 180 degrees celcius (fan) or 200 degrees celcius (normal).
- Wash and prep an average-sized cauliflower into small chunk-sized florets.
- Create a delicious dressing with olive oil, lime zest and juice, turmeric powder, and Asilia’s Turmeric Ginger salt. Thoroughly mix the cauliflower florets with the dressing in a mixing bowl. Note: If you are adding the cashew nuts, do this now as well.
- Line a baking tray with a baking sheet.
- Place the delicious cauliflower onto the baking tray and place in the red hot oven. Tip: spread the florets out so they caramalise properly.
- Roast the cauliflower florets, until they are browned and caramelized, for about 30 minutes.
- Allow to cool to cool for 2 minutes before serving. Note: sprinkle the parsley
