Spiced yoghurt dressing

• 1/2 cup natural yoghurt 

• 1 tbsp olive oil

Method

Step 1: Preheat oven to 200°C. Remove the base of the cauliflower and drizzle olive oil on top, then season with salt and pepper. Place in the oven and roast for 45-55 minutes.

Step 2: Meanwhile, place the yoghurt, remaining olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, spices and salt in a bowl and mix well to combine. Remove cauliflower from the oven and spread the sauce all over, reserving approximately 2-3 tablespoons. Return to the oven and roast for another 15-20 minutes, or until tender.
