Equipment

  • roasting tray
  • non-stick fry pan

Ingredients
  

  • 500 g cauliflower - cut into florets
  • 1 pear - cored, sliced with skin on
  • 1/2 cup walnuts
  • 1/2 cup natural yoghurt
  • 6 fresh mint leaves
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1/2 tspn sea salt

Instructions
 

  • heat oven to 180C
  • Put the cauliflower florets into a zip lock bag with olive oil, salt and pinch of black pepper. Shake them around so that they are all well covered. Then spread them into a roasting dish lined with baking paper. Bake for 25 minutes - cauliflower will caramelise beautifully.
  • In your non-stick pan, put another dash of olive oil and pop in the pear slices. Move them gently around until they are just golden. Add them to the cauliflower in the oven 5 minutes before the cauliflower is ready.
  • In the same pan, lightly dry roast the walnuts - this will bring out the wonderful oils and make them so tasty in the salad.
  • Take the cauliflower out of the oven, stir the walnuts through and serve with the minted yoghurt on the side.**
  • **chop the mint leaves and stir through the yoghurt. It's that simple.
