Method

Prepare the Cauliflower

  1. 1

    Roast the Cauliflower

    Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). In a large bowl, toss the cauliflower florets with olive oil, cumin, paprika, salt, and black pepper until evenly coated. Spread the cauliflower on a baking sheet and roast for 25-30 minutes, or until golden and tender.

Make the Sauces

    Prepare Chipotle Mayo

    In a small bowl, mix together mayonnaise, chipotle in adobo sauce, and lime juice until smooth. Set aside.

  2. 3

    Prepare Cilantro Chimichurri

    In a mixing bowl, combine chopped cilantro, minced garlic, red wine vinegar, olive oil, and salt. Stir well to combine and set aside.

  3. 4

    Prepare Corn Guacamole

    In a bowl, mash the ripe avocados. Stir in corn kernels, lime juice, and salt to taste. Mix until well combined.

Assemble the Tacos

    Build the Tacos

    Warm the corn tortillas in a skillet or microwave. To each tortilla, add a generous portion of roasted cauliflower, a dollop of chipotle mayo, a spoonful of cilantro chimichurri, and corn guacamole. Drizzle with Valentina's hot sauce to taste. Serve immediately.
