Salt and pepperto taste
1large cauliflower
To serve
handful pomegranate seeds
handful flat leaf parsleyfinely chopped
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 200°C (fan)/220°C/gas mark 7.
Mix 2 cloves of crushed garlic, 1 tbsp olive oil, 50g harissa paste and 50g dairy free yoghurt together in a bowl. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
Trim the cauliflower, removing any big leaves. Wash and pat dry with kitchen towel.
Hold the cauliflower upside down and rub into the bowl so that the harissa paste covers the cauliflower. Use your hands to rub in the last bits if needed.
Place the cauliflower into a lightly greased roasting tin and cover with a lid or foil.
Roast for 30-45 minutes. Larger cauliflowers will take longer to cook.
Remove the foil and roast for a further 20-30 minutes until tender (check by inserting a knife into the centre) and crispy on the outside.
Serve with chopped flat leaf parsley and pomegranate seeds.
