Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 1 tsp olive oil
  • 1 cups (237 ml) chopped white onion
  • 5 cloves minced garlic
  • 3 cups (710 ml) cauliflower
  • 1 cups (237 ml) chopped tribelli peppers
  • 1/3 cup water
  • 1/4 cup cashews blended with 2 cups (473 ml) water
  • 1 tsp pink salt
  • 1 tbsp nutritional yeast
  • 1 tsp oregano
  • 1 tbsp chopped green chives

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (177°C).
  2. Heat olive oil in a large pan over medium heat. Sauté onion and garlic until the onion is soft.
  3. Add the cauliflower, tribelli peppers, and water. Cover and simmer on low for about 10 minutes, or until the cauliflower is semi-softened.
  4. Add cashew cream, pink salt, oregano, and nutritional yeast.
  5. Remove the lid and bring to a boil for 1 to 2 minutes to thicken the creamy cashew sauce.
  6. Add the mixture to a baking dish.
  7. Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes, or until lightly golden on the surface.
  8. Remove from oven and cool for approximately 10 minutes.
  9. Sprinkle with chives and serve.

Notes

  • For a richer flavor, roast the cauliflower and peppers before adding them to the pan.
  • To make this dish spicier, add a pinch of red pepper flakes with the oregano.
  • Leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 4 days and reheated gently on the stovetop.
