Ingredients
- 1 whole cauliflower
- 2 tbsp grapeseed oil, plus extra for drizzling
- salt
- 5 thick spring onions, cut into julienne, soaked in cold water
- 3 radishes, thinly sliced
- 1 tsp soy sauce
- 2 tsp rice vinegar
- pinch of sugar
- ½ tsp grated ginger
- 1 tsp sesame oil
- toasted sesame seeds, shichimi togarashi and thinly sliced nori, to serve
Black garlic miso
- 3 black garlic cloves
- 100 g hatcho miso (red miso)
- 1 tbsp sake
- 1 tbsp mirin
- 1 tbsp sugar
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 220ºC.
- Trim the leaves and stem from the cauliflower to sit flat and place the whole head in a baking dish. Drizzle with the oil and season well with salt. Bake for 40-60 minutes or until well-blackened on the surface. Remove from the oven and preheat the grill setting.
- For the black garlic miso, mash the black garlic cloves in a bowl with a fork. Mix in the miso, sake, mirin and sugar.
- Cover the top of the cauliflower with the black garlic miso, then grill for 5 minutes or until blackened. You can skip this step if you like, it will still be delicious.
- Meanwhile, combine the spring onion with the radish, soy sauce, vinegar, sugar, ginger and sesame oil. Serve the cauliflower with the spring onion salad and scatter with the sesame seeds, shichimi togarashi and nori.
