METHOD

Tomato pesto

  1. Place the dried tomatoes, pine nuts, garlic, lemon juice and oil in a food processor and blend until almost smooth. Season to taste. Add more oil if needed.

Baked cauliflower

  1. Remove the large outer leaves from the cauliflower and trim the base so that the cauliflower can sit flat.
  2. Place the cauliflower on a universal tray. Drizzle with the olive oil and sprinkle the spice and salt over the cauliflower.
  3. Place the tray in the combi steam Pro oven on shelf level 1 (shelf level 2 in a 60 cm oven) and select Combi mode: Fan Plus at 200⁰C + 60% moisture. Cook for 45 minutes, or until soft enough to pierce with a knife.
  4. Serve the cauliflower with the tomato pesto.

Hints and tips

  • This dish is delicious on its own, or as a side dish with a protein main – we love it with our lamb shoulder with creamy polenta and gremolata recipe.
  • When roasting cauliflowers in traditional ovens you will need to boil or steam it briefly before roasting. However, using a combi steam Pro oven, you can combine these two steps at once.
  • Dry your own tomatoes to use in this dish using the Drying function in our ovens.
