Cauliflower is one of my favourite veg for so many reasons. Firstly it makes amazing rice ( cooked and raw), it’s just delicious in curry, cauliflower crust pizza and roast cauliflower – so good!
I think cauliflower is transformed by roasting it. The outside becomes deliciously nutty and charred and the centre is soft but still with a little bit of texture. I find roast cauliflower incredibly comforting and filling especially when combined with protein-packed quinoa.
Today I added some rocket leaves as I had them to hand but you could add any leaf or herb (baby kale or coriander work really well). However for me its the tahini dressing which really pulls the dish together. Garlicky, lemony and nutty it coats everything in its sticky deliciousness
I'd love to know if you made this recipe.

Did you know that I have a new cookbook?
It's called Rebel Recipes and I'm so proud of it. If you like my recipes I know you'll love my cookbook - It took me over a year to develop (and years in the making) and it's packed with deliciously vibrant veg packed recipes!

[…] I think they are great served with flatbread (buckwheat, spelt of gram are all fantastic), hummus, chopped avocado, crunchy radishes, pomegranate seeds and lots of fresh coriander, oh and mint and tahini dressing. […]
I just want you to know that I made this last night and served it with some baked fish for dinenr. I had about a cup of the rice total. My darling husband ate what I served him, then went and got the pan and a spoon and finished the rice. He asked me to make it again tonight. Unfortunately, I don’t have any more coconut milk, but I had to promise to pick up some more this weekend. This was the most unexpectedly delicious rice recipe I’ve ever used!
Hi Hend, I’m so glad you (and the Husband) enjoyed it so much. Thank you – Niki xo
