Ingredients
1 large head cauliflower, approximately 5 cups florets
3 tablespoons olive oil, divided
1/4 cup tahini
2 tablespoons water (or more for desired consistency)
1 lemon, juiced
1 garlic clove
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon ground cumin
Pinch of ground coriander
Pepper, to taste
Garnish: olive oil, sunflower seeds, chopped parsley
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Remove the florets from the head of cauliflower and place them on a baking tray. Drizzle with 1 tablespoon of olive oil and toss to coat evenly. Roast in the preheated oven for 20 minutes, until the cauliflower is tender and lightly browned.
Transfer the roasted cauliflower to a Vitamix or food processor. Add the tahini, the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil, water, lemon juice, garlic clove, salt, cumin, and coriander. Season with pepper to taste. Blend on high until smooth and creamy. Adjust the consistency with additional water if needed.
Transfer the hummus to a serving bowl and garnish with a drizzle of olive oil, sunflower seeds, and chopped parsley.
