Process
Note, these instructions are written assuming the standard serving size, since you have modified the number of servings, these steps may need to be modified for best results
- Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Remove leaves and trim the base of the cauliflower so it can sit flat.
- Rub the cauliflower all over with olive oil.
- Sprinkle generously with za'atar, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
- Roast uncovered on a baking sheet for 40–50 minutes, or until fork tender and lightly browned. (Cover loosely with foil if it browns too quickly.)
- Whisk tahini, lemon juice, garlic, salt, and warm water together until smooth and pourable.
- Blend chickpeas, garlic, tahini, lemon, cumin, olive oil, and salt until smooth and creamy. Add a splash of water as needed to reach desired texture.
