Tips:

  • Choosing the right cauliflower: Look for heads that are compact and heavy, with tightly packed florets. Avoid heads with brown spots or blemishes.
  • Cutting the cauliflower steaks: Use a sharp knife to cut the cauliflower into 1-inch thick slices, making sure to cut through the stem. The steaks should be roughly the same size so they cook evenly.
  • Seasoning the cauliflower steaks: Before roasting, toss the cauliflower steaks with olive oil, salt, and pepper. You can also add additional seasonings, such as garlic powder, onion powder, or paprika.
  • Roasting the cauliflower steaks: Roast the cauliflower steaks in a preheated oven at 425°F for 20-25 minutes, or until they are tender and slightly browned. Flipping the steaks halfway through cooking will help them cook evenly.
  • Making the golden raisin and pine nut topping: While the cauliflower steaks are roasting, make the topping by combining golden raisins, pine nuts, butter, honey, and thyme in a small saucepan. Cook over medium heat until the butter is melted and the raisins are plump.
  • Serving the roasted cauliflower steaks: Transfer the roasted cauliflower steaks to a serving platter and top with the golden raisin and pine nut topping. Serve immediately.

Conclusion:

Roasted cauliflower steaks are a delicious and healthy side dish or main course. They are easy to make and can be customized with a variety of toppings. The golden raisin and pine nut topping in this recipe adds a sweet and nutty flavor to the cauliflower steaks. This dish is sure to be a hit at your next gathering.
