Roasted Cauliflower Salad

July 7, 2019

Here's some other precious rock from the lab good daytime cookbook, shared past times Saras. It's a recipe that she got from her cousin inwards Jerusalem for a salad alongside my favourite clash of flavours as well as textures - savoury cauliflower as well as hazelnuts refreshed alongside celery as well as parsley, inwards a sweetness as well as warmly spiced dressing, all scattered alongside pretty, tangy pomegranate seeds. We're already familiar alongside a real similar salad made past times Ottolenghi, but I similar that Saras' version uses some of the celery leaves, non merely the stalks, as well as those fresh pomegranate seeds supersede dried fruit. 

This is such a versatile recipe: it packs good for picnics, potlucks, as well as workday lunches; it passes every bit a low-cal but satisfying repast on its own, as well as makes a brilliant side dish for merely close anything else. We matched it oddly but real happily alongside a batch of kimchi, gochujang & cheese scrolls. 

Roasted cauliflower salad
(a recipe shared past times Saras,
which she credits to her cousin)

1/2 loving cup hazelnuts, roasted
1 large cauliflower, chopped into bite-sized pieces
ii tablespoons olive oil, addition to a greater extent than to roast the cauliflower
1 tablespoon white vino vinegar
1 1/2 teaspoons maple syrup
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon allspice
1/3 loving cup pomegranate seeds
ii stalks celery, sliced thinly
1/4 loving cup celery leaves
1/4 loving cup parsley

Preheat the oven to 240°C.

Place the cauliflower inwards a baking tray, pour over olive crude oil as well as generous salt, stirring it through the cauliflower. Bake for close twenty minutes, until the cauliflower is tender, as well as browning roughly the edges. Set aside to cool.

Place the olive oil, vinegar, maple syrup, cinnamon, allspice, as well as some to a greater extent than common salt inwards an former jam jar. Screw on the lid as well as milkshake the dressing until emulsified.

Roughly chop the hazelnuts.

Toss everything together inwards a large salad bowl and, Saras recommends, "bask inwards the praise".
