Harissa Cauliflower Tacos

Ingredients

















Method


  • 1Preheat oven to 200°C (400°F). In a large bowl, toss cauliflower florets with 1 tablespoon olive oil, harissa paste, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/8 teaspoon black pepper until evenly coated. Spread in a single layer on a baking sheet.


  • 2Roast cauliflower for 25-30 minutes, flipping halfway, until tender and lightly charred. While cauliflower roasts, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil in a medium skillet over medium heat.


  • 3Add drained chickpeas, cumin, smoked paprika, garlic powder, remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/8 teaspoon black pepper to the skillet. Sauté for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until chickpeas are lightly crisped and fragrant.


  • 4Prepare the mint-lime crema: In a small bowl, whisk together Greek yogurt, lime juice, lime zest, and chopped mint. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper. Set aside.


  • 5Warm tortillas according to package instructions (microwave, dry skillet, or oven). Arrange shredded red cabbage and sliced red onion for serving.


  • 6To assemble, fill each warm tortilla with roasted harissa cauliflower, spiced chickpeas, a drizzle of mint-lime crema, shredded cabbage, sliced red onion, and a sprinkle of fresh cilantro.

Notes


  • For a vegan option, substitute Greek yogurt with a plant-based unsweetened yogurt (like cashew or almond).

  • Prepare the crema and chop vegetables ahead of time to make assembly even quicker.

  • Add thinly sliced jalapeño or a pinch of red pepper flakes to the cauliflower before roasting for extra heat.
