Whole Roasted Tandoori Cauliflower With Mint Chutney
- 1 large head cauliflower, washed, leaves removed
- Tandoori Marinade
- Ingredients:
- 4 cloves garlic
- 1 Tbsp. minced ginger
- 1 Tbsp. tandoori spice blend
- juice of 1 lemon
- 1 tsp. sea salt
- 1/2 cup / 120 ml thick yogurt (preferably goat or sheep - vegans use plant-based yogurt or coconut cream)
- Mint Chutney:
- 2 cups loosely packed mint leaves
- 1 cup loosely packed cilantro leaves
- 1 shallot, minced
- 1/2 red chili, minced (optional)
- juice of 1 lime
- 1/4 cup yogurt (vegans use plant-based yogurt or try coconut cream)
- 1 Tbsp. cold-pressed olive oil
- a couple pinches sea salt
- 1 tsp. raw honey
- Directions:
- 1. In a mortar and pestle (or food processor) smash garlic and ginger into a paste. Add the tandoori spice, lemon and salt and mix until uniform. Fold in the yogurt.
- 2. Place the whole of cauliflower in a large bowl and spread the marinade all over, making sure to coat the bottom as well. Place in the fridge to marinate for minimum 1 hour, maximum 12.
- 3. Preheat oven to 400u0b0F/200u0b0C. On a lined baking sheet, place cauliflower and roast until tender (45-60 minutes depending on the size of the cauliflower). Garnish with cilantro leaves, lots of lemon juice and a generous drizzle of high-quality olive oil. Serve immediately with mint chutney. Enjoy.
- Chutney: Place all ingredients in a food processor and pulse until a chunky pesto-type of sauce results. Season to taste. Enjoy with all tandoori dishes, on top of rice or legumes, or as a spread on crackers or bread. Store leftovers in the fridge. Keeps for 5 days.
