Preparation: 15 minutes
Cooking: 40 minutes
Total: 55 minutes

Serves:

Ingredients

  • 1 head of cauliflower, chopped into florets
  • 1 cup of basmati rice
  • 1/2 cup of chopped hazelnuts
  • 1 onion, diced
  • 3 cloves of garlic, minced
  • 2 tablespoons of olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon of ground cumin
  • 1 teaspoon of ground coriander
  • 1/2 teaspoon of turmeric powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon of cinnamon
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Fresh parsley for garnish

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).

  2. In a large bowl, combine the cauliflower florets with 1 tablespoon of olive oil, cumin, coriander, turmeric powder, cinnamon, salt, and pepper. Toss to coat the cauliflower evenly with the spices.

  3. Spread the cauliflower on a baking sheet and roast in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until golden and tender.

  4. While the cauliflower is roasting, cook the basmati rice according to package instructions. Set aside.

  5. In a large skillet, heat the remaining olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and minced garlic. Sauté until the onion becomes translucent and fragrant, about 5 minutes.

  6. Add the cooked basmati rice and roasted cauliflower to the skillet. Stir to combine all the ingredients.

  7. Gently fold in the chopped hazelnuts. Cook for an additional 5 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.

  8. Serve the roast cauliflower & hazelnut pilaf hot, garnished with fresh parsley.
