FAQ
Is this dish vegetarian or vegan? Is there a dairy-free option?
It’s vegetarian and contains dairy in the yogurt sauce. To make it dairy-free, swap the yogurt for plant-based yogurt and use a dairy-free tahini sauce.
How should I roast cauliflower for best texture?
Toss florets with oil and salt; roast at 425°F (220°C) for about 25–30 minutes until edges caramelize and florets are tender.
Can I make the tahini yogurt sauce dairy-free?
Yes: replace yogurt with plant-based yogurt and adjust lemon and salt.
How many servings does this yield?
About 2–4 servings, depending on portion size.
Can I prep this in advance? How long does it keep?
Yes. Roast the cauliflower ahead of time; keep the sauce separate; refrigerate for 3–4 days.
What sides pair well for a gut-friendly plate?
Serve with whole grains (quinoa, brown rice) and colorful vegetables; add beans or lentils for extra fiber.
Can I adjust the spice or add lemon?
Yes, add lemon juice for brightness; tweak garlic or chili to taste.
Is it gluten-free and what are the common allergens?
It can be gluten-free if you use gluten-free ingredients; main allergens are sesame (tahini) and dairy (unless you use a dairy-free yogurt).
Is this suitable for a low-FODMAP diet?
Cauliflower has FODMAPs in larger portions; if you’re following a low-FODMAP plan, limit to about 1 cup per serving and choose a dairy-free yogurt if needed.
