Take the humble cauli from a side dish to a marvellous hero with this delectable recipe from founder of Miso Tasty Bonnie Chung. It needs to be on your table … stat!
“This super easy roasted whole cauliflower is too good to be served as a side dish. Make this the centre piece and carve it at the table for extra theatre,” Bonnie explained.
Miso is a Japanese paste made of fermented soybeans, and it packs an umami punch. It adds an extra-savoury dimension to soups, marinades and salad dressings.
But don’t just limit miso to mains… it works wonders in desserts too, adding a pleasing salty counterpoint to sweets.
Miso Tasty’s range of organic miso pastes are available at Woolworths & Coles (RRP $7.95 per jar).

Ingredients
- 1 tbsp Miso Tasty red miso paste
- 700 g cauliflower 1 head
- 2 tbsp sesame oil
- 1/2 tbsp Chinese chilli-garlic sauce
- 1 tbsp root ginger peeled and finely grated
- 1 tsp lime zest finely grated
- 1 tsp lime juice
- 2 spring onions (scallions) finely sliced
- 2 tsp white and black sesame seeds toasted
Method
- Cut the leaves and stem off the cauliflower so that it sits flat, and wash the head then drain.
- In a small bowl, mix together the sesame and olive oils, the miso, chilli-garlic sauce, ginger and lime zest and juice until fully combined.
- Using your hands, rub the mix over the cauliflower, making sure you get it everywhere, even the base. Leave for 30 minutes.
- Preheat the oven to 160°C / 325°F / Gas mark 3.
- Put the cauliflower on a lined baking tray and roast for 1 hour.
- Remove the cauliflower from the oven and sprinkle the spring onions and toasted sesame seeds over.
- Slice the cauliflower at the table into wedges, as if cutting a cake. Enjoy!
