Method

  1. Boil a pot of water. Cut the cauliflower into bite-sized florets then add to the boiling water. Remove cauliflower once tender and soft.
  2. In a small bowl, whisk together the tahini, lemon juice, water, garlic, mustard powder, and pepper.
  3. Place the cauliflower in a large bowl and pour the tahini mixture over it. Stir to coat the cauliflower evenly with the marinade.
  4. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and marinate the cauliflower in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes, or up to 2 hours.
  5. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  6. Transfer the marinated cauliflower to a baking sheet and spread it out in an even layer.
  7. Bake the cauliflower for 20-25 minutes, or until it is tender and lightly browned.
  8. Sprinkle the chopped chives and sesame seeds over the baked cauliflower and serve. Enjoy your cauliflower marinated with tahini and chives!
