Method
- Heat the oven to 220 °C. Stand the cauliflower on its stalk and cut it vertically into 2 cm slabs — the middle gives you two or three whole “steaks”, the outer edges fall into florets, and those get used too.
- Toss the steaks and florets with a third of the oil, a teaspoon of cumin, salt and pepper. Spread them on a tray with the drained chickpeas.
- Roast 28 minutes, turning halfway. The edges have to brown.
- Chimichurri: chop the parsley, coriander and garlic very finely. Mix them with the rest of the oil, the lemon juice, oregano, chilli and salt. Don’t blend it — chimichurri should be chopped, not puréed.
- Chop the almonds and toast them in a dry pan for 2 minutes.
- Pour the chimichurri over the steaks and scatter with the almonds.
