Ingredients

  • ½ head Cauliflower
  • ¼ Lime juiced
  • 2 tsp Sunflower Oil
  • ¼ tsp Salt
  • tsp Ground Cumin
  • tsp Ground Coriander
  • ¼ tsp Turmeric
  • ¼ tsp Chilli Powder optional
  • ½ tsp Brown Sugar

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 180°C/350°F. Line a baking tray with grease-proof paper.
  • Using a large knife, remove the leaves from the cauliflower and cut it vertically into 1.5 cm thick slices. I got two large and two smaller 'steaks' from 1/2 a head of cauliflower. Add the steaks to the baking tray.
  • Prepare the marinade by mixing together the lime juice, sunflower oil, sugar and spices in a small bowl. 
  • Use a brush or spoon to spread the marinade onto the cauliflower slices. Spread it as evenly as you can. Don't worry about flipping the steaks as the marinade will seep through.
  • Bake the curried cauliflower steaks for 25-30 minutes. Remove from the oven once crispy and caramelised.
  • Serve hot, sprinkled with chilli flakes, hemp seeds, fresh coriander and dairy-free yoghurt.

Notes

  • Feel free to prepare the cauliflower steaks ahead of time and leave them in the fridge to marinate before baking. They'll only taste more flavoursome!
  • Leftovers can be stored in the fridge and reheated in the microwave.
