Cauliflower Steaks with Gremolata Recipe

How to Make Cauliflower Steaks with Gremolata

Method

  1. To toast the pepitas, preheat oven to 160°C (or 140°C fan forced). Place pepitas onto a baking sheet and toast in oven for aproximately 4 minutes. Remove from oven and set aside to cool.
  2. To cook cauliflower, preheat oven to 200ºC (or 180ºC fan forced). Line a large baking tray with baking paper. Heat 1 tablespoon of the oil in a large, non-stick frying pan over medium-high heat. Add 2 cauliflower slices to pan. Cook for 4-5 minutes or until golden. Transfer to prepared tray. Season. Repeat with a further tablespoon of the oil and remaining cauliflower slices. Bake cauliflower for 15-20 minutes or until tender. Season.
  3. Meanwhile to create the gremolata, combine pepitas, parsley, lemon rind, lemon juice, garlic and remaining oil in a bowl. Season.
  4. Transfer cauliflower steaks to a platter. Serve topped with gremolata and extra parsley leaves.

Tip: If the cauliflower steaks are served as a main course, accompany them with some steamed green beans and balsamic dressed salad leaves.
