Ottolenghi Cauliflower Salad Recipes

YOTAM OTTOLENGHI'S CAULIFLOWER SALAD

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 220°C/425°F (200°C fan).
• Toss cauliflower with oil, salt and pepper. Spread on tray, roast 20 minutes, turn, then roast for a further 5 to 10 minutes until the edges are golden brown and the cauliflower is cooked through. Don't let it get overcooked, sad and soggy!
• Transfer to bowl and let cool for 20 minutes.
• Turn oven down to 160°C/320°F (140°C fan). Spread hazelnuts on tray then roast for 5 minutes until they smell amazing.
• Cool slightly, then roughly chop (most skin will naturally fall off).
• Place hazelnuts, parsley and celery into the bowl. Sprinkle over cinnamon, allspice, salt and pepper. Drizzle with olive oil, maply syrup and vinegar. Toss gently with hands or rubber spatula.
• Plate up: Taste, add more salt or pepper if needed. Transfer to serving bowl. Scatter over pomegranates. Serve at room temperature.

ROASTED CAULIFLOWER, HAZELNUT AND POMEGRANATE SEED SALAD

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
• Mix the cauliflower with 3 tablespoons of the olive oil, 1/2 teaspoon salt and some black pepper. Spread out in a roasting pan and roast on the top oven rack for 25 to 35 minutes, until the cauliflower is crisp and parts of it have turned golden brown. Transfer to a large mixing bowl and set aside to cool.
• Decrease the oven temperature to 325 degrees. Spread the hazelnuts on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and roast for 17 minutes.
• Allow the nuts to cool a little, then coarsely chop them and add to the cauliflower, along with the remaining oil and the rest of the ingredients. Stir, taste and season with salt and pepper accordingly. Serve at room temperature.
