Ingredients
1large head cauliflower(about 675g)
2tspground turmeric
1/4tspsalt
4large Medjool datesstoned and thinly sliced lengthways
25gloosely packed fresh coriander leaves
3tbsproasted salted almondspreferably Marcona
For the dressing
3tbspfinely chopped tender fresh coriander stems
2tbspgochujang or Sriracha
2tbspfresh lime juice(from 1 large lime)
1tbspextra-virgin olive oil
1tsphoney
pinch of salt
Method
Heat the oven to 220°C/425°F/gas 7, with a rack in the middle. Remove and reserve any green leaves from the cauliflower, then trim and discard the rough part of the stem. Cut the cauliflower lengthways into two or three 2cm thick steak-like slices. The rest will fall apart, but that’s OK – it will still taste great.
In a small bowl, whisk together the oil, turmeric and salt. Arrange the cauliflower steaks and pieces, along with any leaves, on a baking tray, drizzle with the oil mixture, and gently turn the cauliflower with your fingers to coat. Roast until golden and tender but not at all mushy, 25-30 minutes.
Meanwhile, make the dressing: In a jar with a lid or in a medium bowl, vigorously shake or whisk together all of the ingredients.
Arrange the roast cauliflower on a platter and drizzle with the dressing. Top with the dates, coriander leaves and almonds. Serve hot.
