INGREDIENTS
1 medium head Cauliflower (600g)
250g Extra-Firm Tofu
1 tbsp Sesame Seeds (9g)
1 tbsp Miso Paste (17g)
1 tbsp Fresh Ginger, grated (6g)
1 Garlic Clove (3g)
1 tsp Low-Sodium Soy Sauce (5mL)
1 tsp Rice Vinegar (5mL)
1 tbsp Olive Oil (14g)
2 stalks Green Onions (15g)
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Remove the leaves from the cauliflower and trim the stem end so that the head sits flat. Cut the cauliflower into 3/4-inch thick steaks from the center. Reserve any small florets for another use or roast them alongside.
Pat the tofu dry and cut into 1/2-inch thick slices. Lightly press the slices to remove excess moisture.
Set up a baking rack. Brush the cauliflower steaks and tofu slices lightly with olive oil. Sprinkle sesame seeds evenly over the cauliflower to create a crispy, nutty crust. Season lightly with salt and pepper if desired.
Place both the tofu and cauliflower on the baking sheet. Roast in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, flipping halfway, until the cauliflower is tender with crispy edges and the tofu is slightly golden.
While the vegetables roast, prepare the ginger-miso sauce. In a small bowl, combine miso paste, grated ginger, minced garlic, low-sodium soy sauce, and rice vinegar. Mix well until the sauce is smooth. If needed, add a teaspoon of warm water to adjust the consistency.
Once roasted, transfer the cauliflower steaks and tofu to a serving plate. Drizzle the warm ginger-miso sauce evenly over both.
Garnish with sliced green onions and an extra sprinkle of sesame seeds if desired. Serve immediately and enjoy!
