Roasted Cauliflower Steak with Tahini Sauce

Have you ever heard of Cauliflower Steaks? That’s right—it’s the big trend right now! This dish is not only surprisingly tasty but also offers a texture and flavor profile that will leave you craving more. And you don’t have to be a vegetarian to enjoy it!

I must admit that this dish piqued my curiosity, so I decided to give it a try, and the result is AMAZING AND DELICIOUS! Cauliflower steak is made by cutting the cauliflower into thick slices (steaks) and roasting them until they are golden and crispy on the outside, but tender and juicy on the inside.

It’s a creative way to prepare cauliflower, turning it into a flavorful alternative to meat. The touch of seasonings like black pepper and smoked paprika, combined with olive oil, adds a depth of flavor that makes every bite a unique experience.

To elevate the cauliflower steak even further, the tahini sauce comes into play. This creamy sauce, with a slightly nutty and tangy flavor, perfectly complements the texture of the roasted cauliflower. The combination of tahini with lemon juice and a hint of garlic creates a rich and flavorful sauce, perfect for drizzling over the cauliflower steak.

• Yield: 4 Servings Difficulty: Easy

Ingredients:

For the Cauliflower Steaks:

• 1 cauliflower
• 8 tablespoons of olive oil
• 1 tablespoon of paprika
• 4 garlic cloves
• Salt to taste
• 1 lemon
• Black pepper to taste
• Fresh parsley to taste
• 1 teaspoon of smoked paprika

For the Tahini Sauce:

• 1/4 cup tahini
• 1/4 cup water
• 1 lemon
• 1 garlic clove
• Salt to taste
• Olive oil to taste

Preparation:

Prepare the Cauliflower:

1. Preheat the oven to 200°C (about 400°F).
2. Remove the leaves and stem from the cauliflower and cut it into thick slices (about 1 to 2 cm or 1/2 to 1 inch thick) to resemble “steaks.”
3. In a large bowl, mix the olive oil, paprika, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper. Add the chopped or crushed garlic cloves.
4. Coat the cauliflower slices with the seasoning mixture, ensuring they are well covered.

Roasting the Cauliflower:

1. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with some olive oil.
2. Arrange the cauliflower slices on the baking sheet in a single layer.
3. Roast for about 25 to 30 minutes, turning the slices halfway through, until they are golden and tender.

Preparing the Tahini Sauce:

1. While the cauliflower is roasting, prepare the tahini sauce.
2. In a food processor or blender, combine the tahini, water, lemon juice, chopped garlic, and salt. Blend until you have a creamy, smooth mixture. If the sauce is too thick, add a little more water until you reach the desired consistency.
3. Drizzle a bit of olive oil into the sauce for an extra touch of smoothness, if desired.

It’s Time to Serve:

1. Once the cauliflower is roasted, remove it from the oven.
2. Transfer the cauliflower steaks to a serving plate and generously drizzle with the tahini sauce.
3. Sprinkle with chopped parsley for a fresh and colorful touch.

Done! Now you have a delicious roasted cauliflower steak with a creamy tahini sauce.
