Nguyên liệu

of my favourite ways to cook cauliflower is to cut it into steaks, then serve with chimichurri + a creamy butter bean purée.

it sounds fancy, but it’s actually super easy to make, comes together in no time at all & uses only simple, plant-based ingredients 🌱

Hướng dẫn

First, make the chimichurri. Finely chop the fresh herbs, then add to a mixing bowl. Finely dice the chilli, mince the garlic + add to the herbs with the vinegar. Season to taste, then stream in the olive oil whilst mixing until throughly combined. Set aside.

For the butter beans, simply pour into a blender with the juice of a lemon, salt, pepper, 1 garlic clove + nutritional yeast.

For the cauliflower, chop into steaks- you should be able to get two from the middle of a large one. Save the extra florets for another recipe, or roast with salt, pepper, paprika + olive oil to serve alongside the steaks.

Chop up the leaves + stems & set aside for a zero-waste garnish.

Season the steaks with salt, pepper + paprika on both sides, then drizzle with oil + massage well.

Heat a frying pan to medium high. Add 2 tbsp olive oil. Once hot, add the steak - press down to sear. After several minutes, flip + fry other side until golden brown.

Bash the garlic cloves, add with the butter + baste continuously. Once the steaks are cooked, remove from the pan + add the chopped leaves/stems with a splash more oil & cook until golden + crisp.

To serve, pour the bean purée into the middle of a plate. Place the steak on top, drizzle with chimichurri & scatter over the cauli leaves.
