Cooking Steps

1
  • Preheat oven to 220°C/200°C fan-forced.
  • Chop cauliflower into small florets.
  • Place on a lined oven tray and sprinkle over Mexican fiesta spice blend, drizzle with olive oil and toss to coat.
  • Roast until tender and brown around edges, 20-25 minutes.
  • In the last 5 minutes of cook time, remove tray from oven, then drizzle over the honey, tossing cauliflower to coat. Return to oven and roast until golden.
2
  • Meanwhile, boil the kettle. 
  • Half-fill a large saucepan with boiling water.
  • Add jasmine rice (see ingredients) and a pinch of salt and cook, uncovered, over high heat until tender, 12-14 minutes.
  • Drain, rinse with warm water and return to saucepan 
    with the soy sauce and a drizzle of olive oil. Stir 
    until well combined.
3
  • Set your air fryer to 200°C. Spread rice evenly in a 
    foil-lined air fryer basket and cook for 8 minutes, 
    shaking the basket halfway through, until golden 
    and crispy. Cook in batches if needed.

TIP: No air fryer? Preheat oven to 240°C/220°C 
fan-forced. Spread rice evenly on a lined oven tray. 
Bake for 20 minutes, tossing rice halfway through, 
until golden and crispy.

  • Meanwhile, roughly chop cucumber and tomato.
  • Thinly slice crunchino. 
  • In a small bowl, combine mild chipotle sauce and mayonnaise.
5
  • When the cauliflower has roasted, in a large bowl, combine cucumber, crunchino, gourmet leaf mix, crispy rice and a drizzle of white wine vinegar and olive oil. Season to taste.
6
  • Divide crunchino salad between bowls.
  • Top with Mexican charred cauliflower. 
  • Drizzle over creamy chipotle dressing. 
  • Sprinkle over coriander. Enjoy!
