ROAST CAULI STEAKS, FREEKAH PILAF WITH MINT & BROAD BEANS

Cauli steaks, freekah pilaf with mint & broad beans

This is a plate of goodness and deliciousness. I served mine with a raita but you can omit or use coconut yoghurt to make it vegan. For a crunch element, I roasted some harissa coated chick peas in the oven so they added a crunch element to the dish. Don’t let the long list of ingredients or elements daunt you, it is relatively easy to prepare. I chose to serve this way but you can mix and match the elements and for example pair the freekah and raita with fish or chicken. The oven roasted “popped” chick peas add a crunch element and textural variation to any meal. Freekah is green wheat that is toasted and crushed lightly.
