Ingredients

  • 1 romanesco cauliflower (or ordinary if not in season), broken into florets
  • 2 garlic cloves, crushed
  • 2 tsp of baharat spice mix
  • 100 g of pomegranate seeds
  • 1 dash of sumac, (optional)
  • 120 g of nush almond milk yogurt, (for the dressing)
  • 1.5 tbsp of tahini, (for the dressing)
  • 0.5 lemon, juice only (for the dressing)
  • 1 tbsp of olive oil
  • 1 red onion, sliced
  • 200 g of couscous
  • 400 ml of vegetable stock
  • 1 handful of mint leaves
  • 1 handful of parsley leaves

Method

  • Step 1

    Steam the romanesco florets for 5-6 mins. Meanwhile, heat the oil in a large frying pan and cook the onions to soften and slightly brown. Add the garlic and baharat spice mix to the pan and cook for 30 secs.

  • Step 2

    Once the romanesco is done, add it to the onion pan, cook for another 1-2 mins, then pour in the couscous and stock.

  • Step 3

    Turn the heat under the pan down as low as it will go and cover with a lid. Leave to steam gently for 2-3 mins.

  • Step 4

    Spoon the mixture onto a serving plate and toss the herbs through.

  • Step 5

    Mix the dressing ingredients, season, then drizzle over the salad and top with the pomegranate seeds and sumac (if using).
