Roasted Cauliflower Ceviche with Chili Lime Salt
Recipe by the Clif Family Culinary Team
Servers 4-6
INGREDIENTS:
1 Head of Cauliflower
1 Tbsp Clif Family Napa Valley Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 tsp kosher salt
5 Tbsp fresh lime juice (3-4 limes)
2 Tbsp Clif Family Napa Valley Jimmy Nardello Hot Sauce
6 Tbsp tomato, small dice
3 Tbsp cucumber, small dice
2 Tbsp red onion, small dice
2 Tbsp radish, small dice
1 Tbsp jalapeno, minced
1 Avocado, small dice
1/2 cup cilantro, chopped
1/4 tsp ground cumin seed
1 tsp Jacobsen Salt Co. Chili Lime Sea Salt
1 Tbsp Clif Family Napa Valley Extra Virgin Olive Oil
DIRECTIONS:
Preheat over to highest setting, 500F.
Remove the stem and leaves from the cauliflower and cut into smaller florets. Add the cut florets to a mixing bowl and season with olive oil and salt. Transfer to a parchment paper-lined baking tray and roast for 8-10 minutes until the cauliflower has a roasted appearance and is tender. Remove from the oven and allow to cool. Once cool, transfer to a food processor and pulse lightly until the cauliflower is small enough to resemble a chunky salsa. Transfer the chopped cauliflower to a mixing bowl and dress with lime juice and Napa Nash Hot Sauce. Let the cauliflower marinate while you finish the rest of the recipe.
Prepare the rest of the vegetables and add to the same bowl the cauliflower is in. Add cilantro, Jacobsen Salt Co. Chili Lime Salt, ground cumin and olive oil. Gently fold together and taste mixture. Adjust seasonings to taste. Transfer the “ceviche” to a serving bowl and pair alongside items fresh off the grill for a bright and flavorful addition to your meal.
Serve along with corn tortilla chips if desired.
