Preparation Steps

  1. 1

    Prepare the Cauliflower

    Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Cut the cauliflower into bite-sized florets and place them on a baking sheet.

  2. 2

    Make Za’atar Oil

    In a small bowl, mix olive oil with za’atar. Drizzle the mixture over the cauliflower florets and toss to coat evenly. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

  3. 3

    Roast the Cauliflower

    Roast the cauliflower in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until golden brown and tender, stirring halfway through.

  4. 4

    Prepare Cashew Romesco

    In a blender, combine cashews, tomato, red bell pepper, garlic, lemon juice, and salt. Blend until smooth. Adjust seasoning to taste.

  5. 5

    Make Dukkah

    In a small bowl, combine dukkah ingredients if using a blend or use pre-made dukkah. Set aside.

  6. 6

    Prepare Green Habanero Gastrique

    In a small saucepan, combine chopped green habanero, honey, and a splash of water. Simmer for 10 minutes until slightly thickened. Blend if desired for a smoother sauce.

  7. 7

    Serve

    Plate the roasted cauliflower, drizzle with cashew romesco, sprinkle with dukkah, and drizzle with green habanero gastrique before serving.
