Ingredients
Scale
- 1 large head cauliflower
- 2 heads garlic
- 5 tbsp olive oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 tsp smoked paprika
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
- 1/2 tsp ground cumin
- 1/4 tsp turmeric (optional)

- 4 tbsp tahini (optional)
- 1 lemon, juice only (optional)
- Water, as needed
- Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions
- Start by preheating your oven to 400°F (200°C). While it warms, cut the cauliflower into 1-inch thick steaks and arrange them on a lined baking sheet.
- Mix together your olive oil, salt, pepper, smoked paprika, garlic powder, cumin, and optional turmeric. Drizzle this flavorful blend over the cauliflower steaks.
- Roast the cauliflower in the oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the steaks are tender and golden brown.

- Spread the homemade hummus on a plate, layer the roasted cauliflower steaks on top, and finish with parsley and chili oil if using.
Notes
