Makes 4 servings
Ingredients
  • 1 head cauliflower, cut into small florets
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil, divided
  • 1 tablespoon za'atar
  • sea salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
  • ¼ cup pistachios
  • 8 dates, pitted and chopped
  • 1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
  2. Place cauliflower on a baking sheet. Drizzle with 2½ tablespoons olive oil, sprinkle on za'atar, season with salt and pepper, and toss to coat. Bake for 10 minutes, remove from the oven and stir gently. Bake for another 10 minutes or until cauliflower is caramelized and fork tender.
  3. Meanwhile, toast pistachios by cooking them in a small sauce pan over medium-low heat, stirring occasionally, until fragrant, about 5 minutes. Add dates, thyme and remaining ½ tablespoon olive oil and cook, stirring often, until fragrant, about 1 minute. Drizzle over roasted cauliflower and toss gently to combine. Serve warm or at room temperature.
