Crispy Cabbage and Cauliflower Salad
Recipe from smitten kitchen · original post · full recipe on smittenkitchen.com
A roasted, toasty salad of crispy cabbage and charred cauliflower tossed in a sharp lemon-tahini dressing — crackly and tender in every bite. Serve with harissa on the side.
Ingredients
- savoy cabbage225 g
- cauliflower225 g
- olive oil — divided60 ml
- kosher salt — ½ tsp3 g
- garlic clove — minced1 ea
- lemon juice30 ml
- tahini30 g
- harissa — to taste15 g
Method
- Heat the oven to 450°F (230°C). Cut the cabbage into 1 cm ribbons, then cut the ribbons into 2.5 to 5 cm segments. Cut the cauliflower into 1 to 2.5 cm chunks (quite small). On a large baking sheet, toss with 2 to 3 tablespoons olive oil until lightly coated and sprinkle with the salt and black pepper or red pepper flakes.
- Roast for 10 minutes, then toss everything so it colours evenly. Return to the oven for 5 minutes, toss again, and give it 5 final minutes if needed. Don't be afraid of serious char.
- Meanwhile, make the dressing in a large bowl: whisk the garlic, lemon juice, tahini and 1 tablespoon olive oil together, then whisk in water 1 tablespoon at a time (rarely more than 2) until it's a thick dressing. Season well with salt and pepper. Add harissa to the dressing for heat, or serve it in a dollop on the side.
- As soon as the vegetables are crispy and charred, add them to the bowl with the dressing, toss to coat and eat right away.
