Ingredients

1 large head cauliflower sliced into 1-inch steaks
4 tbsp unsalted butter
2 tbsp white miso paste
1 tbsp maple syrup
1 tsp rice vinegar
3 tbsp crispy chili oil
2 tbsp toasted sesame seeds
1/4 cup fresh cilantro chopped
flaky sea salt to taste

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.

Arrange the cauliflower steaks in a single layer.

In a small saucepan over medium heat, cook the butter until it turns golden brown and smells nutty.

Immediately whisk in the miso paste, maple syrup, and rice vinegar until smooth.

Brush both sides of the cauliflower steaks generously with the miso-butter glaze.

Roast for 25-30 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the edges are caramelized and the stems are tender.

Once removed from the oven, drizzle immediately with the crispy chili oil.

Garnish with toasted sesame seeds and fresh cilantro.

Serve hot for the ultimate savory experience.
