How do you prepare roasted cauliflower in barbecue sauce?
Preheat the oven to 180 degrees Celsius.
Rinse the cauliflower and remove the stalk, then chop the cauliflower and add them to an oven dish. Sprinkle the chopped cauliflower with some oil and salt on top of it, roast for 20 minutes in the oven.
In the meantime, start making your own barbecue sauce. Add all ingredients to a saucepan and stir until it starts boiling. Then turn off the fire.
After 20 minutes take the cauliflower out of the oven en add the drained chickpeas to the oven dish. Poor 2/3 of the barbecue sauce on top of it and mix well, make sure the sauce is well spread. Place the oven dish back into the oven.
Cook the wild rice in a pan of boiling water for 10 minutes, add some salt. After, drain the water if needed and leave the lid on top of the pan to steam to perfection. Get a pan and roast the cashews until they’re turning colour, get them out when they’re gold/brown.
Slice the spring onions. Make the dish by combining the wild rice with the cauliflower and chickpeas. Add some extra barbecue sauce and finish with adding the roasted cashews, spring onions and sesame seeds.
