Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 head Cauliflower
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground cumin
- 0.25 cup Tahini
- 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
- 1 Garlic clove
- 2 tablespoons Water
- 0.25 teaspoon Paprika
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C).
Break the cauliflower into bite-sized florets and place them on a baking sheet.
Drizzle the cauliflower with olive oil, then sprinkle with salt, black pepper, and ground cumin. Toss to coat the florets evenly.
Roast the cauliflower in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until golden brown and tender, stirring halfway through.
While the cauliflower is roasting, prepare the tahini sauce. In a small bowl, combine the tahini, lemon juice, crushed garlic clove, water, and paprika. Stir until smooth and creamy. Adjust consistency by adding more water if necessary.
Once the cauliflower is done, remove it from the oven and transfer it to a serving platter.
Drizzle the roasted cauliflower with the tahini sauce, garnish with finely chopped fresh parsley, and serve promptly.
