Instruções
- 1.Preheat your oven to 200°C. On a baking tray, toss the cauliflower florets with the olive oil, ground cumin, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Roast for 20-25 minutes until tender and lightly caramelized at the edges.
- 2.While the cauliflower roasts, cook the freekeh. Rinse the grain, then combine it with 400ml of water or broth in a saucepan. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15-20 minutes until the liquid is absorbed.
- 3.Prepare the dressing. In a small bowl, whisk together the tahini, juice of one lemon, and the minced garlic. Gradually add 2-3 tablespoons of water, whisking continuously until you achieve a smooth, pourable consistency. Season with a pinch of salt.
- 4.Once the freekeh is cooked, fluff it with a fork. In a large serving bowl, combine the warm freekeh, roasted cauliflower, rinsed chickpeas, chopped parsley, and pomegranate seeds.
- 5.Drizzle the lemon-tahini dressing over the salad and toss gently to combine everything. Serve immediately while warm.
