Description

Ingredients

• 2 heads cauliflower, cut into small florets
• 1 tsp seasoned salt, more for later
• 2 tsp smoked paprika
• 1½ tsp cayenne pepper
• 1 tsp turmeric powder
• 1 tsp ground corriander
• ½ cup olive oil, more if needed
• 1-2 garlic cloves, chopped
• ⅓ cup plain yogurt
• ⅓ cup lime juice
• 3 tbsptahini paste
• handful of c hopped fresh parsley to garnish

Directions

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
• Place the cauliflower florets on a large, lightly oiled baking sheet. In a small bowl, mix the spices. Toss the cauliflower with the spices and the olive oil until well-coated. If needed, add more olive oil, and toss again.
• Be sure to spread the cauliflower florets on the baking sheet in one layer. Roast in the 450 degrees F heated oven for 45 minutes; turn the florets over midway through roasting. When the cauliflower is tender and nicely browned in some parts, remove from the oven and let cool briefly.
• Place about ⅔ of the roasted cauliflower in the bowl of a food processor (you will use the rest later). Add the garlic, yogurt, lime juice, tahini paste and a pinch more seasoned salt. Blend until smooth. Test and season accordingly. If the dip is too thick, add very little water and blend again until you achieve desired consistency.
• Transfer the roasted cauliflower tahini dip into a serving bowl and drizzle a generous amount of olive oil. Top with the remaining roasted cauliflower and the fresh parsley.
• Cover and refrigerate the dip. Remove from the fridge about 10 minutes or so before serving. Serve with pita bread or chips.
