ROASTED CAULIFLOWER STEAKS WITH RAISIN RELISH

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Combine the peppers, raisins, parsley, cider vinegar, capers and 1/8 teaspoon each salt and pepper in a bowl.
• Trim the base of the core from the cauliflower, and then cut the head into 1-inch-thick slices. Cut any florets that fall off into 1-inch pieces. Sprinkle 1/4 teaspoon each salt and pepper over both sides of each cauliflower slice. Heat the olive oil in a large nonstick ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat. Add the cauliflower steaks and florets and cook, turning the steaks once, until browned on both sides, about 5 minutes. Transfer the skillet to the oven.
• Roast until a knife easily pierces through the steaks, 15 to 20 minutes. Spoon the relish over the steaks and serve.

ROASTED CAULIFLOWER STEAKS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400F.
• Trim the stem of the cauliflower and remove the green leaves.
• Place the cauliflower right side up on a cutting board. Using a large knife cut the cauliflower in half. From each half cut a 1 inch thick slice. If the cauliflower is very large you may be able to cut 1 or 2 more slices. *(Along with the slices of "steak" you will have lots of flowerettes left over. You can roast these along with the steaks or save them to use in other recipes.)
• Mix minced garlic with the olive oil in a small bowl.
• Arrange the cauliflower slices on a baking sheet and brush generously on both sides with the olive oil garlic mixture.
• Season with salt and pepper and sprinkle with crushed red pepper.
• Bake for 15 minutes.
• After 15 minutes carefully flip the cauliflower steaks over and brush with more garlic oil.
• Sprinkle grated parmesan cheese over the steaks.
• Return to the oven for 25 minutes, until the cheese is golden and the edges of the cauliflower are brown.
• These cauliflower steaks are great as a side dish or served with steamed green veggies or a crisp green salad.

WHOLE ROASTED CAULIFLOWER WITH SMOKED PAPRIKA

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Trim large leaves off the cauliflower. Trim stalk so cauliflower can sit flat in a Dutch oven.
• Grind fennel seeds with a mortar and pestle. Mix in smoked paprika, salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Whisk in olive oil to form a paste. Rub the paste all over the cauliflower. Drizzle lemon juice all over.
• Bake in the preheated oven, covered, until tender, about 30 minutes. Uncover and baste with any juices that have pooled at the base. Continue baking, uncovered, until top is browned and center feels completely tender when pierced with a paring knife, about 15 minutes.

SPICY ROASTED CAULIFLOWER

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).

• Bake in the preheated oven until cauliflower is soft and cooked through, about 30 minutes, turning once after 20 minutes.

ROASTED CAULIFLOWER WITH SESAME

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450°F.
• In a large mixing bowl, combine the cauliflower, oil, salt, coriander, oregano, and pepper and toss well to evenly coat the cauliflower with the oil and spices. Transfer to a sheet pan and arrange in an even layer, making spaces between the pieces as much as possible. Roast the cauliflower in the oven for 20 minutes, turning the tray and lightly tossing the pieces halfway through.
• While the cauliflower roasts, combine the tahini, miso, vinegar, and 1 1/2 tablespoons water in a small mixing bowl, and whisk until smooth.
• Once the cauliflower is done, remove it from the oven, transfer to a mixing bowl, and toss with the sauce and sesame seeds to coat evenly.

• Cover with plastic wrap and chill for 1 hour minimum.
• Heat the vegetable oil in a large pan until it reaches 350°F (180°C).

• Fry the cauliflower for 4-5 minutes, until golden brown and crispy.
• Drain the pieces on a wire or paper towels. Let cool 5-10 minutes before serving.

CAULIFLOWER STEAKS WITH KALAMATA OLIVE AND RED PEPPER TAPENADE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• For the tapenade: In a food processor, combine the olives, red peppers, raisins, capers, parsley, orange zest, tarragon and black pepper. Pulse six or seven times, just until roughly chopped. Pour in the olive oil and pulse 2 or 3 times to incorporate; the mixture should have the consistency of a coarse puree. Cover and refrigerate until ready to use.
• For the cauliflower steaks: Preheat a grill or grill pan to medium heat.
• Remove the green outer leaves from the cauliflower heads, leaving the cores intact. Set the cauliflowers on their base and halve them vertically (a serrated knife works well for this). Then slice each half, vertically again, into 1-inch steaks; the core will hold them together. You should end up with four nice steaks; reserve the ends for another use.
• Generously coat the steaks on both sides with the olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Grill the steaks for 5 minutes per side, or until golden brown and well-marked. Remove to a foil-lined baking sheet.
• In a small bowl, mix together the Parmesan, panko, parsley, garlic and pepper flakes. Season with salt and pepper. Sprinkle the breading on top of the cauliflower steaks and drizzle with some olive oil. Transfer to the oven for 10 to 12 minutes, or until golden brown. Serve the steaks topped with spoonfuls of the tapenade.

CAULIFLOWER STEAKS WITH ROASTED PEPPER AND TOMATO SALAD

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Place cauliflower, stem side down, on a cutting board. Working from center of head, cut four 3/4-inch-thick "steaks" and set aside. Cut end pieces into florets (you should have about 1 cup). Toss florets with 1 teaspoon oil and arrange on one side of a rimmed baking sheet. Toss tomatoes with 1 teaspoon oil and arrange in a single layer on other side of sheet. Season with salt and pepper.
• Roast until florets are softened and browned in spots and some tomatoes are collapsed, 25 minutes. Refrigerate florets and three-quarters the tomatoes for Easy Chickpea Curry. Transfer remaining tomatoes to a medium bowl; reduce oven to 300 degrees.
• Meanwhile, roast bell peppers over a high gas flame or under the broiler, turning frequently with tongs, until charred on all sides, about 10 minutes. Transfer to a medium bowl, cover with plastic wrap, and let steam 10 minutes. Rub with paper towels to remove skin. Stem, seed, and coarsely chop.
• Add bell peppers to bowl with tomatoes and stir in 1 teaspoon oil, vinegar, parsley, and capers, if using. Season with salt and pepper.
• In a large nonstick skillet, heat 1 tablespoon oil over medium. Add garlic and cook until fragrant, 30 seconds. Add 2 cauliflower steaks, cover, and cook until underside is golden brown, 5 minutes. Flip cauliflower, season with salt and pepper, and cover. Cook until tender, 10 minutes, then transfer to a baking sheet, loosely tent with foil, and keep warm in oven. Repeat with 1 tablespoon oil and remaining 2 cauliflower steaks.
• Meanwhile, cook couscous according to package instructions. To serve, divide couscous among 4 plates and top with cauliflower steaks and roasted pepper and tomato salad.
