Ingredients

  • 2 large heads of cauliflower cut into 1-inch thick steaks
  • 3 tbsp harissa paste
  • 2 tbsp wildflower honey
  • 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
  • 1/2 cup premium tahini
  • 1 clove minced garlic
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • 2 tbsp toasted pine nuts
  • 1 tbsp fresh pomegranate seeds
  • 1 tbsp chopped fresh cilantro

Instructions

1
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
2
In a small bowl, whisk together the harissa paste, honey, and olive oil to create a vibrant glaze.
3
Brush both sides of the cauliflower steaks generously with the mixture, ensuring every crevice is coated for maximum caramelization.
4
Roast for 25-30 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the edges are beautifully charred and the stems are tender.
5
While the cauliflower roasts, prepare the whipped tahini by blending the tahini, lemon juice, garlic, and 2-3 tablespoons of ice-cold water until light and airy.
6
Spread a thick layer of whipped tahini onto a serving platter, place the hot cauliflower steaks on top, and finish with a sprinkle of toasted pine nuts, pomegranate seeds, and fresh cilantro for a final pop of brightness.
