Author Notes

This Copycat True Food Kitchen Tahini Harissa Cauliflower side dish was inspired by the Charred Cauliflower starter from True Food Kitchen! My version adds broccoli and swaps out the pistachios for toasted pumpkin seeds! The tahini harissa sauce is easy to make at home with a few simple spices, and of course garnish with lots of fresh dill! Gluten-free, vegan, nut-free. —Healthy Little Vittles | Gina Fontana

What You'll Need
Ingredients
  • 16 ounces cauliflower and broccoli florets, fresh preferred
  • 1/4 cup avocado oil

Directions
  1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside. In a large bowl, toss the broccoli, cauliflower, avocado oil and garlic together- then spread it in a single layer onto the lined baking sheet. Bake for 30 minutes, tossing occassionally.

For the Tahini Harissa Sauce - I don't see harissa listed in the ingredients. How much should I use?

Hi Tina! I could see how that would be confusing, I “made my own” harissa seasoning in case it’s hard to find with the combination of the paprika, chili powder, cumin and coriander. If you prefer you can just use 2-3 teaspoons of pre-mixed harissa seasoning, but then omit the paprika, chili powder, cumin, and coriander from the recipe. Hope this helps! And I hope you like it!

I thought that might be the case after I posted the comment. Thank you for clarifying and I look forward to making this dish!
