Baked turmeric cauliflower
This is yum served as a side dish or tossed through a salad. Cauliflower isn't the prettiest or tastiest vegetable on its own, but it's a great vehicle for spices and other flavours.Cauliflower contains compounds which offer benefits for estrogen metabolism - so it's helpful for endometriosis. Turmeric is also included in this recipe which offers anti-inflammatory benefits. Tick!Cauliflower isn't low FODMAP but personally I don't have any issues digesting it, so I'm happy to be including it my my repertoire of recipes!
You'll need:
- 1 small head of cauliflower cut in half 
- 2 tbsp olive oil 
- 1 clove of garlic, pressed slightly with a knife (so it's slightly squashed but still one piece) 
- 1/2 tsp sea salt 
- 1/4 tsp pepper 
- 2 tsp turmeric 
- 1 tsp cumin 
- 1/4 tsp sumac 
Method:
- Preheat oven to a moderate heat, around 170 degrees celsius in a fan-forced oven. 
- In a medium frying pan heat oil over a low to medium heat then add the clove of garlic, turmeric, cumin, salt and pepper. 
- Once fragrant (after about a minute), turn the heat off and allow to cool a little. 
- Rub the oil mixture and the garlic from the frying pan all over the cauliflower, discard the garlic and place cauliflower on a baking tray, sprinkle with sumac and a little more salt and place in the oven for 25-30 minutes. 
- Serve warm and enjoy. - Health and healing, - x Meredith
