Marinade and Sauce

Method

Preparation and Cooking

  1. 1

    Prepare the Marinade

    In a large bowl, combine the yogurt, garam masala, lemon juice, minced garlic, grated ginger, and salt. Mix well until all ingredients are combined.

  2. 2

    Marinate the Cauliflower

    Add the cauliflower florets to the marinade and toss to coat evenly. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 2 hours for deeper flavor.

  3. 3

    Prepare the Tomato Jus

    In a saucepan, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the pureed tomatoes and simmer for about 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally. Season with salt to taste.

  4. 4

    Cook the Cauliflower

    Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Arrange the marinated cauliflower in a single layer on the sheet and roast for 25-30 minutes, or until tender and slightly charred.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Once cooked, remove the cauliflower from the oven and serve hot drizzled with the tomato jus. Garnish with chopped cilantro.
