Instructions

1-Getting started with this chilli lime roasted cauliflower nachos is straightforward and fun. Begin by preheating your oven to 180Β°C and greasing and lining two baking trays to avoid any sticking. In a large mixing bowl, combine the corn kernels, cauliflower florets, and chopped onion for a colorful mix.

2-Next, in a small jug, blend the olive oil, crushed garlic, lime juice, paprika, and cumin to create a flavorful oil mixture. Drizzle this over your vegetables and toss them gently to coat everything evenly. Spread the mixture out on the prepared trays, season it well, and bake for 30 minutes. Remember to stir halfway through to ensure even cooking and a golden finish on the cauliflower.

3-While the veggies roast, whip up the dressing by whisking together the yoghurt, lime zest, chipotle sauce, and a bit of water to get it to the right consistency. Once the roasting is done, it’s time to assemble. Arrange corn chips on a platter, top with the warm cauliflower mixture, scatter the toasted seed mix, and drizzle on the yoghurt sauce. Finish with guacamole, sliced chilli, radish, and micro herbs for a fresh pop.
