For the cauliflower:
- 2 large heads of cauliflower
- 1 teaspoon each of smoked paprika cumin, & ancho chile power
- ½ teaspoon dried thyme
- Veggie oil
- Kosher salt
- Freshly cracked black pepper
For the garlic yogurt sauce:
- 4-5 cloves roasted garlic recipe below
- 2 tablespoons freshly chopped Italian flat leaf parsley
- Zest and juice of ½ a lemon
- 1 teaspoon extra virgin olive oil
- ¼ teaspoon kosher salt
- Couple cracks of fresh pepper
- ½ cup greek style yogurt
Method
- Pre-heat oven to 450 degrees F. Cut the ends off both heads of cauliflower, the parts that don’t have the root attached. Cut the cauliflower into 1/2 inch thick steaks, going from the top, to the bottom, and through the stem. You should be able to get 6 steaks, although the recipe calls for 5.
- Make the steak spice rub by combining the smoked paprika, ancho chile powder, cumin, and thyme in a small bowl. Mix well. Drizzle a shot of veggie oil on both sides and rub it evenly over the steaks. Season with a generous pinch of salt and spice rub on both sides, rub the spice rub into the cauliflower.
- Place the steaks on a sheet tray and bake for 15 minutes. Remove from oven and set aside. Cauliflower steaks can sit at room temperature for a while after they have been baked.
- To finish the steaks, pre-heat a large cast iron pan over medium-high heat with 1 tablespoon of veggie oil for 2 minutes. Use a spatula to carefully place 2-3 of the cauliflower steaks in the pan and sear for 3 minutes, or until the steaks are nicely browned on the first side. Use a spatula to carefully flip the steaks, and sear for another 3 minutes. Remove from pan and sear the remaining steaks.
- Serve with the garlic sauce
