Ingredients for Cauliflower Steak

Method

Directions for Cauliflower Steak

  1. 1

    Prepare the Cauliflower

    Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Remove the leaves from the cauliflower and trim the stem. Slice the cauliflower into 1-inch thick steaks.

  2. 2

    Season and Roast

    Drizzle the cauliflower steaks with olive oil, salt, and black pepper. Place them on a baking sheet and roast in the oven for about 25 minutes, flipping halfway through until they are golden brown and tender.

  3. 3

    Make the Pepper Sauce

    In a blender, combine roasted red bell pepper, garlic, and a tablespoon of olive oil. Blend until smooth. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper to taste.

  4. 4

    Prepare the Fried Leek

    Slice the leek thinly and rinse well. In a pan, heat some olive oil over medium heat. Add the leeks and fry until crispy. Remove and drain on paper towels.

    Chive Oil

    In a blender, combine chives with olive oil and blend until smooth. Strain through a fine sieve if desired.
