Steps for Preparing the Cauliflower Roast
First, clean the cauliflower by removing the leaves and the first part of the core. Rinse it and steam it lightly. It shouldn’t be cooked, just softened on the outside. In a pressure cooker, 5 minutes will suffice.
While the cauliflower cooks, prepare the sauce: in a bowl, combine extra virgin olive oil and soy sauce. Enhance it with your preferred spices, I used curry, chili powder, and grated ginger. Emulsify everything.
Spread the sauce on each side of the cauliflower. Massage well to allow it to penetrate into the crevices of the cauliflower. Bake in a static oven at 356°F (180°C) for about 30 minutes. Prepare the sauce by mixing the parsley with the oil. Add it to the cauliflower only before serving.
Storage
Store the cauliflower in the fridge for up to a couple of days.
