Ingredients

1 head cauliflower
2 tbsp olive oil
to taste salt
to taste black pepper
1 tbsp harissa paste
7 1/10 oz plain yogurt
1 tbsp scotch bonnet honey
2 tbsp fresh herbs
1 4/5 oz pistachios

Instructions

1
Preheat the oven to 392°F (400°F).
2
Trim the cauliflower head and slice it into 1‑inch thick steaks.
3
Brush both sides of each cauliflower steak with olive oil, then season generously with salt and black pepper.
4
Arrange the steaks on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
5
Roast in the preheated oven for 25–30 minutes, turning the steaks halfway through, until they are golden‑brown and tender when pierced with a fork.
6
While the cauliflower roasts, prepare the harissa yogurt sauce: in a bowl, whisk together the harissa paste, plain yogurt, Scotch bonnet honey, and the chopped fresh herbs until smooth.
7
Taste the sauce and adjust seasoning with a pinch of salt if needed.
8
When the cauliflower steaks are done, remove them from the oven and let them rest for 2 minutes.
9
Drizzle the harissa yogurt sauce evenly over each steak.
10
Scatter the roasted, roughly chopped pistachios over the top for added crunch.
11
Serve the steaks immediately, optionally accompanied by couscous, quinoa, or a fresh green salad.
