This recipes has been a go-to of our for years, as a savory side, a rustic snack or a breakfast base with a fried egg on top. It's easy to make and has a delicious tang from the mustard dressing. If your cauliflower is small, use two as this dressing ratio is more than enough for your veg and beans. Roast, top, enjoy

Ingredients

  • 1 head cauliflower, cut into bite-sized pieces if small, use 2
  • 1 14 oz can chickpeas, drained, rinsed and dried
  • 3 tbsp plus 1/4 cup olive oil, divided
  • coarse sea salt
  • 1 tbsp Dijon mustard
  • 1 tbsp seeded mustard
  • 1 tbsp white wine vinegar or rice vinegar
  • fresh ground pepper
  • 1/4 cup chopped Italian parsley

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 400 F. Place oven rack in center
  • Toss chickpeas and cauliflower in a large bowl with 3 tbsp olive oil and your pinches of coarse salt
  • Line a baking tray with parchment and spread your cauliflower/chickpea mixture evenly
  • Roast in the oven until cauliflower is soft, about 40-45 minutes
  • MEANWHILE, in a small bowl, whisk together your mustards, vinegar, 1/4 cup olive oil, and some salt and pepper
  • Once your cauliflower and chickpeas are baked, remove back to a large bowl and top with dressing. Toss to coat evenly. Add parsley and serve or cool and store.

Notes

  • We don't keep a stable of vinegars at home but we always have rice vinegar and that works perfectly in place of the white wine vinegar
  • This dressing recipe will easily coat 2 heads of cauliflower plus a can of chickpeas or 1 cauliflower with 2 cans of chickpeas; it's a generous hand so feel free to add more
  • This recipe yields 4 larger servings or several more smaller or side servings
  • Use this recipe for a tapas night as well - it holds up great cold, warm or at room temperature
