SPICED ROASTED CAULIFLOWER WITH FETA AND GARLIC
Cauliflower undergoes a few stages of cooking in this recipe, and, for a deep brown and ridiculous flavor, it's important to see it through all of them. It will be cooked through about halfway through roasting, but to transform it from pale and tender to crisp and golden brown, it must continue roasting at very high heat. Make sure to keep the smaller bits that fall away as you prepare and slice the cauliflower. They'll get the most golden and crunchy, almost like little cauliflower bread crumbs.

Steps:
- Heat oven to 450 degrees. Slice cauliflower lengthwise into ½-inch thick slices, including the core and leaves. (Some of the first slices will crumble and fall apart. This is O.K., and will be useful when you want those crispier bits.)
- Place cauliflower (slices and crumbles) and garlic on a rimmed baking sheet and drizzle with olive oil. Sprinkle with fennel seed, turmeric and red-pepper flakes, and season with salt and pepper.
- Roast, without disturbing, until cauliflower has turned a deep golden brown and crisped up in spots, 25 to 30 minutes. Using a spatula, flip the larger steaks and stir the smaller bits around and continue to roast until completely and evenly browned, another 8 to 10 minutes.
- Remove from heat and transfer to a large serving platter. Top with feta, herbs and a drizzle of olive oil.

Steps:
- Toss 1 head cauliflower florets with 1/2 teaspoon each turmeric and kosher salt. Combine with 2 cups water and 2 smashed garlic cloves in a pot over high heat. Bring to a boil, then cover and simmer until soft, 10 to 15 minutes. Drain and pulse in a food processor. Add 2 tablespoons coconut oil and puree. Season with salt and pepper; top with chopped parsley.
Tips:
- To make sure the cauliflower steaks are cooked evenly, use a sharp knife to cut them into uniform thickness.
- If you don't have a grill pan, you can also cook the cauliflower steaks in a regular skillet over medium heat.
- Be careful not to overcrowd the pan when cooking the cauliflower steaks. This will prevent them from cooking evenly.
- To make the turmeric garlic sauce, use fresh turmeric root for the best flavor.
- If you don't have any fresh turmeric root, you can also use ground turmeric powder. However, the flavor will be less intense.
- Serve the cauliflower steaks immediately after they are cooked, topped with the turmeric garlic sauce.
Conclusion:
This cauliflower steak recipe is a delicious and healthy way to enjoy this cruciferous vegetable. The turmeric garlic sauce adds a unique and flavorful touch that makes this dish a standout. Whether you're a vegetarian or meat-eater, this recipe is sure to please everyone at your table.
