Seasonal local food recipe No.377 – Felicity Cloake’s cauliflower steak

This quick and easy to prepare dish from Felicity Cloake is perfect for Veganuary‘.  Absolutely no need to buy it ready to cook and ridiculously over-packaged from a supermarket!

Serves 2

Preparation time: 5 minutes
Cooking time: 10-15 minutes

Ingredients
1 cauliflower
olive oil
lemon juice
chopped parsley
chilli flakes

Method
Wash the cauliflower and remove any leaves.  Cut the stem so the cauliflower sits flat on a board, then cut into chunky cross sections about 2 cm thick.  Put in a shallow dish and drizzle with olive oil and lemon juice.

Season well, then cook on a very hot griddle or frying pan for about 5 minutes on each side, or until soft and charred.  Scatter with chopped parsley and chilli flakes. Why not serve with chips? We did!
