Ingredients
  

Oil and Seasoning
  • 4 Tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil divided
  • 3/4 tsp. kosher salt divided
  • 4 Tbsp. mild harissa divided (such as Mina brand)
Cauliflower
  • 1 large head cauliflower trimmed and sliced into florets (about 7 to 8 cups)
Tahini-Honey Mixture
  • 2 Tbsp. tahini
  • 1 Tbsp. honey
  • 2 Tbsp. fresh lemon juice divided
  • 1/4 tsp. freshly ground black pepper
Garnish
  • Fresh chopped parsley for garnish (optional)

Equipment

  • large bowl
  • whisk

Method
 

Preparation Steps
  1. Preheat oven to 425°F.
  2. In a large bowl, combine 2 Tbsp. of the oil, 1/2 tsp. salt, and 2 Tbsp. harissa; mix well. Add cauliflower and toss to evenly coat. Spread on a rimmed baking sheet and bake for 35 minutes, tossing once halfway through, until tender.
  3. Remove from oven and toss with remaining 2 Tbsp. harissa; bake for another 5 to 7 minutes, until caramelized and charred in some spots.
  4. Meanwhile, prepare Tahini-Honey by combining remaining 2 Tbsp. olive oil, tahini, honey, 1 Tbsp. lemon juice, remaining 1/4 tsp. salt, and black pepper; stir with a whisk. Whisk in 1 Tbsp. water to thin out to desired consistency.
  5. Transfer roasted cauliflower to a bowl or serving platter. Drizzle with tahini-honey, and squeeze remaining 1 Tbsp. lemon juice overtop. Garnish with fresh parsley, if desired.

Feel free to experiment with flavors by substituting harissa with other spice blends or swapping out the cauliflower for different vegetables like broccoli or sweet potatoes. For added protein and texture, consider tossing in some roasted chickpeas.
