Dukkah roasted cauliflowe­r and avocado dressing

-

This salad is one of our very first 2RS recipes. We had so many people disappoint­ed that it wasn’t in the first book, so here it is for you now.

Roasted cauliflowe­r with a creamy fresh avocado mint dressing and spicy crisp radish slices. The pastel colours scream summer, but it's great anytime you can get your hands on good avocados.
