Forget florets, whole roast Cauliflower is what it’s all about now!
There is something so spectacular about serving a roast Cauliflower whole. It looks amazing, it has a beautiful golden crust that makes you hungry just by looking at it.
The Yoghurt sauce is full of spices and goes very well with any kind of meat or fish. I serve mine just with some rustic oven fries with the skin still on. Give it a go at you next dinner party, it will be a hit!
Ingredients:
1 head of Cauliflower, washed and leafs removed
1 C. thick Yoghurt, regular or soy
1 Garlic clove, peeled and grated
1 tsp. Cajun seasoning
1 tsp. Salt
2 tsp. Onion powder
1 tsp. Curry powder
1 tsp. Cumin
Method:
Preheat the oven to 400° F.
Bring a large pot with water and salt to a boil. Add the whole Cauliflower head and simmer for 15 – 20 min. You should be able insert a wooden skewer but still feel some firmness.
While the Cauliflower is boiling combine the Yoghurt with the spices and seasoning, set aside.
Using 2 slotted spoons, transfer cauliflower to a rack and let it steam off a bit.
When it has cooled a little bit put the Cauliflower head on a baking tray covered with parchment paper and rub all the Yoghurt marinade evenly over its surface. If it is too hot you can use a spoon.
Place into the hot oven and cook for about 20 minutes until a crust has formed.
Pierce with a wooden skewer again to check for doneness. It should pierce thru easily.
Serve straight away. Leftovers are great for lunch the next day, cold or warm.
Sounds so yummy!!

Fantastic. I love it. It is a real showstopper. I suspect that many different flavours could do the trick too.

Thank you Conor. You could vary the flavour according to what you are serving it with. Garlic and fresh herbs would go well too.
