Roasted Cauliflower with Spiced Tahini Dip. I was first introduced to this when Ella and I stayed with some friends friends for a few days enjoying the beach and togetherness. My friend @rana.unity made us this Arabic Roasted Cauliflower Spiced Tahini (not the proper name, help me out with the actual title, thanks 🙂
Ingredients
1 tbsp curry powder
1-2 tsp salt
drizzle of olive oil
1/2 cup tahini
2 garlic cloves minced
1 tsp curry
sprinkle turmeric
1-2 tbsp maple syrup
3 tbsp lemon + little water to thin it out about 4 tbsp
pinch salt and pepper
Instructions
Roast the Cauliflower
- Preheat oven to 400F
- Wash and Cut cauliflower into even medium sized florets.
- Add to a baking pan with parchment paper
- Add curry, salt, olive oil, garlic powder to the cauliflower. Massage it all together
- Pop in oven for 30 to 40 minutes
Make the Sauce:
- 1/2 cup tahini, + 2 garlic cloves minced + 1 tsp curry + sprinkle turmeric + 1-2 tbsp maple syrup + 3 tbsp lemon + little water to thin it out about 4 tbsp + pinch salt. Taste and make to your perfect taste.
- Add water a little bit at a time to thin it out. You want it to be able to drizzle over all the cauliflower but it not be runny.
- Once drizzled I mix it all up and pop it in fridge until its cold. Its a cold salad.
- The way I am serving it here is a great approach if you are serving family of picky eaters. The plain toasted cauliflower tastes really delicious on it’s own.
- Add cauliflower into a bowl. Drizzle the sauce over top and mix together. You may have some left over depending on how big your cauliflower was and your taste preference. I like it pretty saucy.
- Cover and pop in fridge until it gets cold.
Saving Money:
Buy larger jars of ethnic tahini, sesame only. You will save in the long run by buying bulk.

If it is just for me though, I combine the sauce with the cauliflower and pop in the fridge to get really cold and marinated. This way is my favorite.
Saving Time:
Make this ahead of time and store in fridge for up to 3 days.
