Cauliflower

Burnt Apple Pepper Sauce

Honey Yogurt

Garnish

Method

Roasting Cauliflower

  1. 1

    Prepare the Cauliflower

    Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Cut the sprouting cauliflower into florets and place them in a bowl. Drizzle with olive oil, salt, and black pepper, and toss to coat.

  2. 2

    Roast the Cauliflower

    Spread the cauliflower florets on a baking sheet in a single layer. Roast in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until they are golden brown and tender, flipping halfway through.

Burnt Apple Pepper Sauce

  1. 3

    Prepare the Sauce

    In a skillet over medium-high heat, add olive oil. Once hot, add chopped apples and red bell pepper, and cook until softened and slightly charred, about 8-10 minutes. Add minced garlic and cook for an additional 2 minutes.

  2. 4

    Blend the Sauce

    Transfer the sautéed mixture to a blender. Add red wine vinegar, salt, and black pepper. Blend until smooth and adjust seasoning to taste.

Honey Yogurt

  1. 5

    Make the Yogurt

    In a small bowl, mix together Greek yogurt and honey until well combined. Set aside.

Assembly

  1. 6

    Plate the Dish

    On a serving platter, arrange the roasted cauliflower. Drizzle the burnt apple pepper sauce over the top, dollop with honey yogurt, and garnish with lime leaves, cardamom pods, and dried rose petals.
