• 0.5 teaspoon paprika
• 0.5 teaspoon ground cumin
• 0.25 cup tahini
• 2 tablespoons lemon juice
• 2 cloves, minced garlic
• 2 tablespoons water
• 2 tablespoons, chopped fresh parsley

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

Remove the outer leaves of the cauliflower and cut it into bite-sized florets.

In a large mixing bowl, combine the cauliflower florets, 2 tablespoons of olive oil, salt, black pepper, paprika, and ground cumin. Toss until the cauliflower is evenly coated with the spices and oil.

Roast in the preheated oven for 30 to 40 minutes, or until the cauliflower is tender and golden brown, stirring halfway through.

While the cauliflower is roasting, prepare the tahini sauce. In a small bowl, whisk together the tahini, lemon juice, minced garlic, the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil, and water until smooth and creamy. Add more water if necessary to reach your desired consistency.

Step 7

Once the cauliflower is done, remove from the oven and transfer to a serving platter.

Drizzle the tahini sauce over the roasted cauliflower.

Step 9

Garnish with freshly chopped parsley before serving.
