Ingredients
- 1 large cauliflower
- 2 tablespoons sesame oil
- 1 tablespoon cooking oil
- 1 tablespoon Miso paste gluten-free if needed
- 1 tablespoon Chili garlic sauce
- 1 teaspoon finely grated ginger
- To serve: sliced green onions, toasted white and black sesame seeds, and sea salt
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425 degrees. Cut the leaves and stem off the cauliflower so that it sits flat.
- In a small bowl, mix the sesame and cooking oil, miso paste, Chinese chili garlic sauce, and ginger. Using your hands, rub the mix over the cauliflower, making sure you get it everywhere, even the bottom.
- Place the cauliflower in a cast iron pan or on a baking sheet and roast in the oven for 45-55 minutes, or until it is soft and brown. Remove the cauliflower from the oven and season with sea salt. Sprinkle the green onions and toasted sesame seeds over before serving.
