METHOD

  1. Trim the base of your whole cauliflower to get rid of any leftover hard green edges. 

  2. Then rub, dunk or smear it with salt and your favourite coriander pesto (or basil pesto if that’s your preferred flavour). Be as generous or sparse as you like.

  3. Put it in the oven at 180° C for between 1 hour and 1 hour 20 min (depending on the size of the cauliflower). 

  4. While that’s in the oven, make a yummy hummus by blending a tin of chickpeas with ½ tablespoon tahini (store-bought), salt, pepper and a squeeze of lemon juice. 

When your cauliflower is roasted, serve with your delicious homemade hummus and enjoy!

Lekker eet,
