Roast cauliflower and chestnuts
Ingredients:
■ One large cauliflower
■ 10-15 chestnuts, peeled and roughly chopped
■ 50g curry powder
■ 1 tsp cumin seeds
■ sea salt to taste
■ black pepper to taste
■ 3-4 green chillies finely chopped (or to taste)
■ 200g butter
Method:
■ Preheat the oven to 140°C.
■ Cut the cauliflower into medium-sized florets; toss with the curry powder until coated.
■ Heat a large frying pan on medium-high heat and let the butter melt. Once the butter begins to foam, add the cumin seeds and let them brown.
■ Add the coated cauliflower and allow to caramelise on a low heat. Once the desired colour has been reached take out the cauliflower from the frying pan and place onto a baking tray lined with foil.
■ Cover the cauliflower with some more foil and place into the preheated oven to cook until soft. This usually takes between 10-15 minutes.
■ While the cauliflower is cooking in the oven, place the chestnuts into the same frying pan that was used for the cauliflower. Allow to cook in the residual butter for 6-8 minutes.
■ Once cooked, place in a warm serving bowl and top with the chestnuts. Sprinkle with sea salt and serve.
