Cauliflower sandwich
cauliflower sandwich is an incredibly tasty snack – honestly!
Cauliflower sandwich, much to my surprise, is an incredibly tasty snack. Absolutely packed with flavour. It truly celebrates the cauliflower and is a joy to have.
initially I wasn’t sold on the idea
When I was first offered a snack of a cauliflower sandwich I wasn’t totally taken by the idea to be honest.
All I could think was “Really???”
But then I was thinking of cauliflower in the English sense i.e. a boiled to death, a kind-of insipid tasting vegetable which would do nothing to add flavour or texture but instead just make the bread a bit sad and soggy. So, sadly there was nothing there to inspire me.
But I accepted any way just to be polite. To my surprise, what I was handed was a plate with a sandwich made with warm pita bread, that in itself changed the game-play. It had been sliced open to create a pocket and slotted inside was florets of crispy, spiced cauliflower.
the smell of the herbs and spices in the cauliflower sandwich were wonderful
It smelled fantastic. The cauliflower was coated in batter, that had been seasoned with herbs and spices. It was tender on the inside with a slight bite and crispy and gorgeous on the outside having been coated in this amazing spiced batter. The smell from the spices filled the air. It was such a surprise nothing like what I had imagined.
the cauliflower sandwich was packed with wonderful flavours
Packed in alongside the cauliflower was a little fresh salad made with chopped fresh herbs and fresh salad vegetables bursting with flavour. This wonderful masterpiece was then finished off with fresh, lemony tahini dressing drizzled over it. I was stunned! Great flavours, great texture and just a truly brilliant snack.
