Roasted Miso Cauliflower
Roasted Miso Cauliflower features large cauliflower pieces marinated in a dressing of miso paste, olive oil, water, fresh grated ginger, salt, and black pepper. Roasted until caramelized and tender, the cauliflower develops rich umami flavor from the miso. Garnished with chopped parsley and sesame seeds, this vegetable dish delivers savory depth and appealing texture.
Ingredients
- 1 cauliflower whole
- 3 tablespoons miso paste
- 3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- 2 tablespoons water
- 1 teaspoon ginger freshly grated
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
To serve (optional)
- parsley chopped
- sesame seeds black and white
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400°F / 200°C.
- Cut the cauliflower into large chunks.
- Whisk the miso paste, oil, water, ginger, salt and pepper in a large bowl to combine, then toss the cauliflower pieces in the dressing to coat.
- Place the cauliflower pieces in a single layer on a baking tray and roast for 15 minutes, then flip each piece over. Roast for a further 10-15 minutes until soft, slightly dark and caramelised.
- Serve warm topped with parsley and sesame seeds (if using).
Notes
- Cut cauliflower into large florets to avoid overcooking or burning small pieces during roasting.
- Arrange cauliflower in a single, even layer on the baking sheet to prevent steaming and sogginess.
- Check doneness by testing with a fork; it should slide through easily when fully cooked.
- If more browning is desired, broil the cauliflower for 1 to 2 minutes after roasting.
