Ingredients

  • 2 large heads cauliflower cut into 1-inch thick steaks
  • 3 tbsp white miso paste
  • 2 tbsp maple syrup
  • 1 tbsp rice vinegar
  • 2 tbsp avocado oil
  • 1/2 cup toasted pepitas
  • 1/4 cup fresh parsley
  • 1 clove minced garlic
  • 1 tsp lemon zest

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 miso paste, maple syrup, rice vinegar, and avocado oil until smooth.
3
Arrange the cauliflower steaks on the baking sheet and brush both sides generously with the miso-maple glaze.
4
Roast for 25-30 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the edges are deeply caramelized and the centers are fork-tender.
5
While the cauliflower roasts, prepare the gremolata by finely chopping the toasted pepitas, fresh parsley, minced garlic, and lemon zest in a small bowl.
6
Once the cauliflower is golden brown, remove from the oven and top each steak generously with the vibrant pepita gremolata.
7
Serve immediately while hot for the best textural contrast.
