Yield Serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 19

For the Curried Cauliflower
1/2 cauliflower, washed, dried and broken into very small florets
2 tsp ground turmeric
1 tsp cumin
1 pinch of freshly grated nutmeg
1 pinch of cinnamon
1 sprig of thyme, leaves only
2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
sea salt
For the Hummus
1 2/3 cups (13oz/400g) canned chickpeas, drained (reserve the liquid)
2 tbsp tahini
juice of 1/4 lemon
1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
1 pinch of sea salt
To serve
4 slices of sourdough bread
1 scallion (spring onion), chopped
2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil

Steps:

  • Start by making the curried cauliflower. Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C/gas mark 7). In a bowl, toss the cauliflower with the spices, thyme leaves and olive oil, mixing well. Transfer to an ovenproof dish and roast in the oven for 10-15 minutes, until lightly brown on top. Remove from the oven and set aside to cool.
  • Place all the hummus ingredients into a food processor or use a handheld blender to process until smooth. If necessary, use a little of the reserved chickpea liquid to thin the mixture to a smooth purée. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
  • To serve, spread the hummus on the bread and top with the curried cauliflower. Sprinkle the scallion (spring onion) on top and drizzle with the olive oil.

CURRIED ONION AND CAULIFLOWER HUMMUS



CURRIED ONION AND CAULIFLOWER HUMMUS image

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 pound dried chickpeas (2 1/2 cups), soaked overnight and drained
8 garlic cloves, peeled
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 cup tahini
1/2 cup fresh lemon juice
1/3 cup extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for drizzling
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
Salt
Canola oil, for frying
1/2 pound cauliflower, cut into 1/2-inch florets
2 teaspoons curry powder
1 large onion, halved and thinly sliced
1 1/2 teaspoons finely crushed pink peppercorns
Chopped parsley, for garnish

Steps:

  • In a saucepan, cover the chickpeas, garlic and baking soda with 2 inches of water and bring to a boil. Cover and simmer over moderately low heat, stirring every 15 minutes, until the chickpeas are tender, 50 minutes; if necessary, add water to keep them covered. Drain the chickpeas and garlic and transfer to a food processor; puree until very smooth. With the machine on, gradually add the tahini, lemon juice, 1/3 cup of olive oil and the cumin; season the hummus with salt. In a skillet, heat 1/4 inch of canola oil. Add the cauliflower and fry over moderately high heat, stirring, until tender and deeply browned, 8 to 10 minutes. Transfer to a paper towel–lined bowl to drain. Add 1 teaspoon of the curry powder and toss well. Season with salt and toss again. Pour off all but 1/4 cup of the oil from the skillet. Add the onion and a big pinch of salt and cook over moderately high heat, stirring, until just starting to soften and brown in spots, about 5 minutes. Add the pink peppercorns and the remaining 1 teaspoon of curry powder and cook, stirring, until 
fragrant, about 3 minutes. Season with salt. Spoon the hummus into a bowl and top with the onion and cauliflower. Drizzle with olive oil, garnish with parsley and serve. MAKE AHEAD The hummus can be refrigerated for up to 5 days. The curried toppings can be refrigerated overnight; bring to room temperature before serving. SERVE WITH Warm pita or naan.
