Ingredients Method

Ingredients

1 medium cauliflower
2 tbsp olive oil
2 tbsp dried oregano
1 tbsp smoked sea salt
1 tsp mild chilli powder
2 lemon
4 tbsp greek yoghurt
1 jalapeño, finely chopped
1 tbsp fresh oregano, leaves finely chopped

Method

Step 1

Start by mixing the dressing ingredients together in a bowl. Season to taste and pop in the fridge until needed

Step 2

Remove the outer leaves of the cauliflower. Trim the stalk with a knife – you want to level it off so the cauliflower will sit flat.

Step 3

In another small bowl, mix the oil, oregano, smoked salt, a pinch of black pepper, chilli powder and lemon zest to make the rub. Then, use your hands to rub it all over the cauliflower.

Step 4

Put the cauliflower onto the BBQ, over indirect heat, and put the lid on. Bake it on the BBQ for 30 mins – make sure your coals are nice and hot and try not to peep at it or the heat will escape.

Step 5

After 30 mins, move the cauliflower over to the direct heat and cook for another 10-20 mins, turning to make sure it’s lightly charred all over and the cauliflower has softened but still has a good amount of crunch in the middle.

Step 6

Remove and carve it into wedges for dipping and dunking in the yogurt sauce. TIP: To cook indoors, preheat oven to 190°C/170°C fan/gas 5 and roast for around 40-50 mins.
