Spice Roasted Cauliflower With Barley Salad Recipe 445

Steps:

• Heat oven to 220C/200C fan/gas 7 and boil the kettle. Put the cauliflower in a large roasting tin and add 2 tbsp olive oil and a generous pinch of salt. Mix to coat, then roast for 20-30 mins, shaking the tin halfway through cooking.
• Meanwhile, put the barley in a small saucepan and cover with boiling water. Simmer for 10-15 mins until soft, then drain and allow to cool slightly before emptying into a large bowl. Heat the remaining olive oil in a medium frying pan and add the shallots and garlic. Fry gently for 5-10 mins until the shallots begin to caramelise, then add to the warm barley.
• Add the asparagus to a saucepan of boiling water and simmer for 3-4 mins. Remove with a slotted spoon and run under cold water - this prevents overcooking and retains the bright green colour. Roughly chop into 2cm lengths and add to the shallots and barley.
• Add the broad beans to the simmering water for 2-3 mins until the beans are just tender. Drain and run under cold water before popping the bright green beans from their skins. Add the beans and most of the lemon zest to the barley salad, then stir through the parsley and dill.
• Put the dressing ingredients in a jam jar with a pinch of salt, shake together and pour over the barley salad just before serving. In a separate bowl, mix together the yogurt and dill.
• Season the cauliflower with black pepper, and serve with the barley salad and the dill yogurt and lemon wedges on the side.

Steps:

• Place barley in a large saucepan; add water to cover by 2". Season with salt. Bring to a boil and cook until tender, 25-30 minutes. Drain; run under cold water. Set aside.
• Meanwhile, whisk lemon juice, mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, and 5 tablespoons oil in a medium bowl until emulsified. Season dressing with salt and pepper; set aside.
• Heat remaining 1 tablespoon oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add cauliflower; cook, turning occasionally, until browned in spots, 10-12 minutes. Add 2 tablespoons water, cover, and cook until just tender, about 2 minutes longer. Season with salt and pepper.
• Transfer cauliflower to a large bowl; add beans, 1/4 cup parsley, 1 tablespoon tarragon, reserved barley, and half of reserved dressing. Toss to coat; season with salt and pepper.
• Divide salad among bowls; drizzle remaining dressing over. Garnish with lemon zest, 1/4 cup parsley, and 1 tablespoon tarragon.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 450 degrees. Slice cauliflower lengthwise into ½-inch thick slices, including the core and leaves. (Some of the first slices will crumble and fall apart. This is O.K., and will be useful when you want those crispier bits.)
• Place cauliflower (slices and crumbles) and garlic on a rimmed baking sheet and drizzle with olive oil. Sprinkle with fennel seed, turmeric and red-pepper flakes, and season with salt and pepper.
• Roast, without disturbing, until cauliflower has turned a deep golden brown and crisped up in spots, 25 to 30 minutes. Using a spatula, flip the larger steaks and stir the smaller bits around and continue to roast until completely and evenly browned, another 8 to 10 minutes.
• Remove from heat and transfer to a large serving platter. Top with feta, herbs and a drizzle of olive oil.

Steps:

• In a small bowl, beat the butter and spices with a wooden spoon, then set aside.
• Heat oven to 220C/200C fan/ gas 7. Trim the outer leaves of the cauliflower and remove the very bottom of the root, being careful to keep some of the root attached so the whole cauliflower remains intact. Bring a large pan (big enough to fit the whole cauliflower) filled with salted water to a rolling boil. Cook for 3-4 mins to partially tenderise, then carefully remove with two slotted spoons.
• Put the cauliflower and chickpeas on a baking tray. Rub the cauliflower with the butter, dot a little over the chickpeas and season everything. Roast in the oven for 35 mins until the chickpeas are crispy, the cauliflower is deep golden-brown, and a cutlery knife can be inserted into the middle easily.
• Meanwhile, make the feta dressing. In a large bowl, whisk the feta and Greek yogurt until the cheese has completely broken up and the mixture is creamy. Add the lemon juice, whisk again, then season to taste. Chill until needed.
• Remove the cauliflower and chickpeas from the oven, transfer the cauliflower to a plate, then mix the remaining ingredients, except the pomegranate molasses, with the warm chickpeas on the tray.
• Arrange the herby chickpeas on a large sharing platter and place the whole cauliflower on top. Spoon over the dressing and drizzle with pomegranate molasses to serve.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Bring a medium pot filled with salted water to a boil over high heat. Blanch cauliflower until al dente, about 3 minutes. Drain and toss dry. In a baking dish, toss cauliflower with spices, ¼ cup olive oil and a pinch of salt. Spread cauliflower out in a single layer and roast, flipping half way through, until browned and crisp in spots, about 20 minutes. Zest 1 orange. Supreme oranges: Use a knife to trim top and bottom from fruit. Set fruit on end and, slicing from top to bottom following curve of fruit, cut away peel and pith. Release each section by inserting blade between membrane and flesh on either side and removing loosened flesh. Reserve membrane. In a bowl, toss supremes, zest, barley, almonds, mint and olives. Season with remaining oil, lemon juice and salt. Squeeze juice from reserved membrane over salad.
