Join us in the kitchen today as we prepare a stunning Whole Roasted Cauliflower with Lemony Yogurt Sauce-a simple, yet delicious recipe that's perfect for menopausal women looking to add nutrient-rich, anti-inflammatory foods to their diet.
Why This Dish Is Great for Menopausal Women:
Cauliflower: High in fiber and antioxidants, cauliflower supports hormonal balance and reduces inflammation.
Turmeric and Cinnamon: These spices are known for their anti-inflammatory properties and can help manage menopausal symptoms like joint pain and mood swings.
Greek Yogurt: A great source of calcium and probiotics, which are essential for bone health and digestive wellness during menopause.
Olive Oil: Rich in healthy fats and vitamin E, olive oil is beneficial for heart health and skin hydration.
Ingredients:
1 large cauliflower
½ teaspoon Cayenne Pepper Powder
½ teaspoon Paprika Powder
½ teaspoon Cumin Powder
½ teaspoon Cinnamon Powder
½ teaspoon turmeric
½ teaspoon Thyme
1 teaspoon Kosher salt
5 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
Yoghurt sauce
½ cup Greek yogurt
1 clove garlic, crushed or minced
1 lemon, zested
2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice
½ teaspoon freshly ground pepper
Garnish
2 tablespoon pomegranate molasses
Pomegranate seeds
Fresh mint leaves, chopped
Chilli Oil
Instructions:
• Prepare the oven and baking sheet: Preheat the oven to 180*c and line a baking sheet with foil.
• Make the spice mix: Mix together all the spices with oil and set aside until ready to use.
• Trim the cauliflower: Take the cauliflower, remove the larger tougher leaves, and trim the stalk a little. You still want the cauliflower to remain whole.
• Boil the cauliflower: Fill a saucepan, large enough for the cauliflower to fit in it and be fully or atlest 3/4 submerged, with water. Add salt. Bring the cooking liquid to a low boil over medium high heat. Slowly and carefully lower the cauliflower top side down into the saucepan. Cook for 5 mins. We just want to par boil/ cook the cauliflower.
• Drain the cauliflower and roast: Once the cauliflower is tender enough to insert a knife in the stem without resistance use a large, slotted spoon or a large fork and tongs to remove it from the pot. Set it in a colander to drain well. Place the cauliflower stem-side down on a foil-lined baking tray. Drizzle the spice mix over the cauliflower and roast in the oven for approximately 40 to 45 minutes.
• Make the yogurt sauce: While the cauliflower cooks, combine the Greek yogurt, crushed garlic, lemon zest, lemon juice, pepper, in a bowl and blend. Set aside until ready to serve.
• Assemble the dish: Once the cauliflower has cooked through and has charred a little on top, remove from the oven and assemble the final dish. Spread the yogurt sauce on a serving dish. Place the whole roasted cauliflower on top of the yogurt sauce.
• Garnish and serve: Drizzle with the pomegranate molasses and a little more extra virgin olive oil if you wish. Scatter pomegranate seeds and freshly chopped dill and chilli oil before serving.
