Grilled Yogurt Marinated Cauliflower Food

ROASTED CAULIFLOWER WITH YOGURT TAHINI DRESSING

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• In a large bowl, mix the cauliflower, chickpeas, shallots, olive oil, zaatar and salt and pepper. Pour into a 2-quart oval cast-iron casserole pan and place in the oven to roast until the florets are tender, about 35 minutes.
• To make the dressing, mix the yogurt, tahini, lemon juice and salt and pepper to taste in a medium bowl. Mix well to dissolve the tahini.
• Place the casserole on a trivet or heatproof surface. Drizzle the dressing on top and serve while still warm.

GRILLED CAULIFLOWER SALAD WITH TAHINI YOGURT SAUCE

Steps:

• Preheat a grill to medium-high.
• Combine 3 tablespoons of the olive oil, 2 teaspoons of the sumac and the cumin and turmeric in a large bowl. Add the cauliflower florets and toss with the spice mix until fully coated.
• Place a grill basket or a 12-by-18-inch piece of aluminum foil on the grill, then add the cauliflower in a single layer. Close the lid and grill for 15 minutes. Open the lid and flip the florets with a pair of tongs. Close the lid and grill until the cauliflower is charred in spots and crisp tender, 10 to 15 minutes more.
• Meanwhile, whisk together the yogurt, tahini, lemon juice, garlic, remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil, remaining 1 teaspoon sumac, 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1/4 teaspoon pepper and 3 tablespoons water in a small bowl. Set the tahini yogurt sauce aside.
• Transfer the grilled cauliflower to a large serving plate and season with salt. Top with the mint, parsley, green onions, red onions, walnuts and sultanas, then drizzle with the tahini yogurt sauce (see Cook's Note). Serve warm or at room temperature.

GRILLED TANDOORI CAULIFLOWER WRAPS

Steps:

• Marinate the cauliflower: Combine the yogurt and vegetable oil in a large bowl. Stir in the ginger-garlic paste, tandoori masala, fenugreek, turmeric and garam masala and season with salt and pepper. Add the cauliflower and stir to coat thoroughly. Cover and refrigerate 2 hours or overnight.
• Meanwhile, make the raita: Combine the yogurt, cucumber, chaat masala, sugar and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a small bowl. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
• Make the mango slaw: Preheat a grill to medium high and oil the grates. Grill the mango and bell pepper, turning occasionally, until softened and charred, 6 to 8 minutes for the mango and 8 to 12 minutes for the bell pepper. Remove from the grill and thinly slice into matchsticks.
• Combine the jalapeño paste, curry leaves, ginger, cilantro, lime juice, sugar and 1/4 teaspoon salt in a medium bowl. Add the mango and bell pepper and toss to combine.
• Increase the grill heat to high. Place the cauliflower florets on the hot grill, cover and cook 5 minutes. Uncover and cook, turning occasionally, until the cauliflower is tender and well marked, 5 to 8 more minutes. Remove the cauliflower from the grill and sprinkle with lemon juice and chaat masala.
• Serve the cauliflower on the naan. Top with the raita and mango slaw. Serve with lime wedges, if desired.
• Whisk the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt and sugar in a large bowl. Stir in the yogurt and melted butter with your hands or a wooden spoon until combined. If the dough is too dry, add water, about 1 tablespoon at a time, until the dough comes together (you may need up to 1/2 cup water).
• Knead the dough in the bowl until it bounces back when you press it, about 2 minutes. Divide the dough into 4 balls and let rest, covered, 30 minutes.
• Preheat a grill to medium high. Roll out each ball of dough until 1/8 inch thick. Generously oil the grill grates. Grill the naan until dry around the edges and charred, 30 seconds to 1 minute per side.

Steps:

• Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate.

GRILLED CAULIFLOWER WITH SPICED YOGURT SAUCE

Steps:

• Bring about 1 inch salted water to a boil in a large pot fitted with a steamer basket. Place cauliflower in basket, stem-side down. Reduce heat to medium, cover, and steam until a sharp knife easily slides into stem, 7 to 10 minutes. Transfer to a plate; let cool slightly, about 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, in a small bowl, whisk together 4 tablespoons olive oil, garam masala, paprika, and garlic; season with salt and pepper. Whisk 2 tablespoons olive-oil mixture into yogurt, along with 1 tablespoon lemon juice; season with salt and pepper. In another bowl, combine cucumbers, tomato, chives, and remaining 2 tablespoons lemon juice, and 1 tablespoon olive oil. Season with salt and pepper.
• Preheat grill to medium-high; scrub grates, then lightly brush with vegetable oil. Brush cauliflower all over with 1 tablespoon olive-oil mixture; season with salt and pepper. Grill top and sides of cauliflower, turning every few minutes and covering grill in between, until florets are charred in places, about 20 minutes. Flip cauliflower stem-side down; brush with remaining oil mixture and grill, covered, until tender but not falling apart, 5 to 8 minutes more. Cut cauliflower into quarters and serve with cucumber salad, yogurt mixture, and chutney.
