Ingredients

For the roasted cauliflower

1 head cauliflower cut into small florets
45 ml olive oil
15 g za'atar
Salt and freshly ground black pepper

For the tahini and almond butter dressing

60 g tahini
60 g almond butter
30 ml lemon juice
30 ml water
Salt and freshly ground black pepper

For the slow cooked onions

2 medium onions thinly sliced
30 ml olive oil
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
For the lemony herby yogurt
250 ml Greek yogurt
15 g fresh mint leaves finely chopped
15 g fresh parsley leaves finely chopped
15 ml lemon juice
Salt and freshly ground black pepper

For serving

60 g pomegranate seeds
Fresh mint and parsley leaves for garnish

Method

Preheat the oven to 200°C/180°C fan/gas mark 6. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a bowl, toss the cauliflower florets with the olive oil, za'atar, and some salt and pepper. Spread them out in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet and roast for 25-30 minutes, or until golden brown and tender.
While the cauliflower is roasting, prepare the dressing. In a small bowl, whisk together the tahini, almond butter, lemon juice, water, salt, and pepper until smooth.
To make the slow cooked onions, heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the sliced onions and season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, for about 20-25 minutes, or until the onions are caramelized and soft.
To make the lemony herby yogurt, combine the Greek yogurt, mint, parsley, lemon juice, salt, and pepper in a bowl and stir to combine.
To assemble, spread the lemony herby yogurt on a large platter. Arrange the roasted cauliflower on top of the yogurt. Drizzle the tahini and almond butter dressing over the cauliflower. Scatter the slow cooked onions and pomegranate seeds over the top. Garnish with fresh mint and parsley leaves.
