Cauliflower, in florets or whole, roasted in the oven with oil and spices until browned, on a tahini sauce with pine nuts.

⏱ 42 min

1
Preheat the oven to 220°C (430°F).
⚙ Preheating the OvenOven
💡Put things in the oven only once it's reached temperature, after the heating light has gone off: an oven that hasn't reached temperature changes baking times, and the bake burns outside or stays underbaked.
2
Spread the cauliflower florets on a baking sheet, drizzle with the olive oil and sprinkle with the salt and black pepper.
Baking pan
3
Roast 25–30 minutes, until the cauliflower is tender inside and browned outside.
OvenBaking pan
💡A hot oven and room in the pan: crowded cauliflower steams instead of browning, and the sweet, toasty flavor never comes.
4
Transfer to a plate and drizzle the tahini sauce on top.
