Cauliflower And Chickpea Salad Food

INDIAN-SPICED CAULIFLOWER & CHICKPEA SALAD

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees F. In a medium bowl, combine curry powder, olive oil and salt. Add the cauliflower, garbanzo bean and carrots; toss to coat. Spread mixture in a 15x10x1-inch baking pan. Roast 20 to 25 minutes or until vegetables are tender, stirring once.
• Meanwhile, for dressing, in a small bowl, stir together the yogurt, lime juice and ginger and, if desired, jalapeño pepper. If needed, thin with milk to desired consistency.
• In a large bowl, combine roasted vegetables, lettuce, parsley and onion. Top with dressing; toss to coat.

CHICKPEA AND CAULIFLOWER SALAD

Steps:

• On a rimmed baking sheet, toss chickpeas and capers with 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil; season. Roast at 475 degrees until chickpeas are golden brown, about 20 minutes. Whisk together 1/4 cup olive oil and red-wine vinegar. Toss together cauliflower; almonds; raisins; parsley; chickpea mixture; and dressing. Season.

ROASTED CAULIFLOWER AND CHICKPEAS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Toast the coriander, turmeric, cumin seeds, fennel seeds and cayenne in a dry skillet over high heat until fragrant, 2 to 3 minutes. Pour the oil into a large mixing bowl, and then add the toasted spices. Add the ginger, cauliflower, chickpeas and onions, and toss to coat everything evenly. Place on a sheet tray and season with salt and pepper. Roast in the oven until browned and the cauliflower is tender, 30 to 35 minutes. Serve with cilantro sprigs and finish with a squeeze of the fresh lime juice.

SPICED WHOLE CAULIFLOWER & WARM CHICKPEA SALAD

Steps:

• Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Mix together all the marinade ingredients plus 1/2 tsp sea salt and 1/4 tsp freshly ground pepper. Drizzle the oil over the base of a medium roasting tin. Use your hands to coat the cauliflower entirely in the marinade, then sit it in the oiled tin. Spoon any leftover marinade on top. Roast for 30 mins until the topping is set.
• Splash 100ml water into the tin, then cover loosely with foil. Return to the oven and let the cauliflower steam for 30 mins.
• Meanwhile, toss the chickpeas, onion, spices and some seasoning together. Uncover the cauliflower, scatter the chickpea mixture around it (the water will have mainly evaporated), then roast for 20 mins more until the onion is tender and the chickpeas are crisping. The cauliflower should be golden and tender by now - when you insert a skewer inserted through the middle, it should meet little resistance.
• Stir the yogurt and coconut cream together to make a loose dressing, then season. Fold the tomatoes, coriander and lemon juice through the chickpeas, then serve with the dressing and a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil, if you like.
