This oven roasted cauliflower steak with Romesco sauce and charred spring onions is a colourful feast of flavour and makes a great alternative to steak for a date night. The subtle wood fired flavour from the pizza oven works with the bitter-sweet and nutty flavoured cauliflower.
Method
Start by preheating your wood oven to at least 350˚C and then make your romesco sauce by roasting your peppers. After 10 mins when the skin is blackened and they are soft and tender, remove from the oven and blitz two of them with onion, almonds, oil, garlic and smoked paprika. Season to taste.
Then rub your cauliflower steaks with oil, salt and pepper and transfer to a ridged skillet. Place into the centre of the oven for 5 mins. Then turn them over and add crushed garlic cloves, sprigs of thyme and diced butter to the pan. Roast for a further 5-10 mins until the butter browns and the cauli steaks soften.
Throw your spring onions into the oven for the last 2-3 mins to char with the cauli. Serve the cauli steak on a generous dollop of Romesco sauce with extra chargrilled peppers and the wood roasted spring onions. Season with some sea salt flakes and a fresh sprig of thyme.
