Ingredients

  • 1 head cauliflower, chopped into florets
  • 1 x 400g can chickpeas, drained and rinsed
  • Spray oil
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 4 cups silverbeet leaves, stalks discarded
  • 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons crumbled goats’ feta
  • salt & pepper to taste

Method

Preheat the oven to 200°C. Put the cauliflower and chickpeas on an oven tray, spray with oil and sprinkle with cumin, tossing to coat. Roast for 20-30 minutes, until cauliflower is browned and tender, with some crispy dark brown edges.

Blanch or microwave silver beet for 1-2 minutes, until tender.

Combine cauliflower, chickpeas, silverbeet and olive oil in a large bowl. Mix well. Season with salt and pepper.

Transfer to a serving plate and sprinkle over goats’ cheese.
