I was looking through all my photos yesterday, in anticipation of the up coming In my kitchen series, when it dawned on me that I'd better do some seperate posts otherwise my next installment would be too long.
I'm not one for following trends but I have fallen head over heels for this miso coated cauliflower. I know, the Japanese have been slapping it on everything for centuries but any wonder! It is salty and tangy and perfect with this cauliflower and another excuse to have the oven in during this bitterly cold winter I'm in the middle of.
I'm using Shiro Miso paste and all you need is around a tablespoon of it, mixed with a dash or 2 of boiling water to loosen the miso up, a pinch of chilli flakes (optional), cracked pepper and if like me you like to hide chia seeds in everything, a sprinkle of them too. Cut up a 1/4 of a cauliflower into flowerettes and coat well by tossing in a bowl. Place on a baking tray with baking paper into an oven preheated to 180c for around 20 minutes.
I had it with left over roasted vegetables from the night before (pumpkin and sweet potato), reheated and paired with rocket, feta, walnuts and a spritz of lemon....miso love it!!
Ciao, Jan x
Great idea Jan! I usually just roast it straight with oil and salt but the miso would be a great sub for salt! You're such a clever clogs :D
ReplyDeleteHow good is roasted cauliflower! Thanks :)x
DeleteWhat a delicious looking dish, Jan. I love cauliflower no matter how its prepared.
ReplyDeleteSuch an underrated vegetable isn't it - I love it x
DeleteJan, seeing that you use so little of the music I might consider buying some. It's very expensive here :)
ReplyDeleteCan you get it in little soup sachet packets Tandy? Could be a cheaper option than buying a big packet - wonder why it's so expensive there? It's very cheap here.
DeleteLove cauli, love your ideas. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteYour welcome Maree!
DeleteI bet that tastes delicious! I have a packet of miso in the fridge that I've hardly touched I need to get stuck into it and use it more often.
ReplyDeleteHope you enjoy it Nancy - I've got my eye on a chicken to smoother it in and roast too....will report back!! x
DeleteUnbelievable, something so delish is so, so easy! Starting to gear up for a trip to japan at the end of the year - lovely way to start is to get cooking 'in the style of..'. Thank you x
ReplyDeleteGreat idea Jan! I love cauliflower and miso so perfect combo. I just want to bite into this :)
