Coconut Turmeric Relish Recipes

Steps:

• Place oven rack in lowest position and preheat to 450°F. Toss cauliflower and oil on a large rimmed baking sheet; season with salt and pepper. Arrange cauliflower so a flat side is facing down and roast until dark brown and crisp on bottom, 15-20 minutes. Remove from oven and turn pieces over. Roast until second side is dark brown and crisp, 10-15 minutes. Let cool slightly.
• Transfer warm cauliflower to a platter. If using, spoon relish over top and season with more salt and pepper.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°F. Remove the toughest outer leaves from cauliflower (leave the tender inner leaves) and trim stem. Resting cauliflower on stem, cut in half from top to bottom, creating two lobes with stem attached. Trim off outer rounded edge of each piece to create two 1 1/2"-thick steaks; reserve trimmed off florets for making cauliflower rice or roasted cauliflower.
• Heat 2 Tbsp. oil in a large cast-iron skillet over medium-high. Cook cauliflower, gently lifting up occasionally to let oil run underneath, until deep golden brown, about 5 minutes. Add remaining 1 Tbsp. oil to skillet, turn steaks over, and season with salt and pepper. Cook until second side is golden brown, about 3 minutes, then transfer skillet to oven. Roast just until stems are tender when pierced with a cake tester or toothpick, 8-12 minutes. Let cool slightly.
• If using relish, swipe some yogurt over each plate and place a steak on top. Spoon one-quarter of relish over each. Season with more salt and pepper.

Steps:

• Very thinly slice cauliflower on a mandoline into a medium bowl. Drizzle with oil and toss to coat; season with salt and pepper.
• If using relish, add to cauliflower and toss to coat. Season with more salt and pepper.

Steps:

• Rinse rice until water runs clear. Drain and set aside.
• In a medium pot or Dutch oven, toast the coconut and sesame seeds over medium-low heat, stirring occasionally, until fragrant, 3 to 5 minutes. (Adjust heat as needed to prevent burning.) Transfer to a small bowl. Wipe out the pot.
• In the same pot, melt the coconut oil over medium-low. Add the scallion whites, turmeric and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper and cook, stirring, until aromatic and lightly toasted, 3 to 5 minutes.
• Add the rice, coconut milk, saffron (if using), and 1 1/2 teaspoons salt. Fill the empty can of coconut milk with water and add it to the pot. Give the mixture a good stir to separate any lumps and bring to a boil over medium-high.
• Once boiling, cover, turn the heat to low, and simmer for 10 minutes.
• As rice cooks, remove and discard the tough stems of the leafy greens, if needed, and cut or tear the leaves into bite-size pieces. When the rice has cooked for 10 minutes, arrange the greens on top of the rice in an even layer and season well with salt and pepper. Cover, and cook until the rice is tender, 5 more minutes. Remove from heat and let sit, covered, 5 minutes.
• As rice rests, zest the lime and cut it into 4 wedges. Add 1/2 teaspoon zest to the coconut-sesame mixture, along with the scallion greens. Season with salt and pepper and stir to combine.
• Gently stir the greens into the rice using a spatula or fork, season to taste with salt and pepper. Divide among bowls. Sprinkle the coconut mixture on top and serve with a lime wedge for squeezing over.

Steps:

• Working in 2 batches, pulse cauliflower in a food processor until pieces are about the size of a grain of rice (some smaller and some larger is fine).
• Heat 2 Tbsp. oil in a large skillet over medium-high. As soon as oil is shimmering, add half of cauliflower and cook, tossing often, until golden in spots and tender but not mushy, about 3 minutes. Season with salt and pepper and transfer to another medium bowl. Wipe out skillet and repeat with remaining oil and cauliflower. Let cool slightly before serving.
• If using relish, add to cauliflower and toss to coat. Season with more salt and pepper.
