Step-by-Step Preparation

  1. Preheat the Oven: Start by preheating your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Season the Cauliflower: In a large mixing bowl, toss the cauliflower florets with olive oil, ground turmeric, sea salt, and black pepper until well coated.
  3. Roast the Cauliflower: Spread the seasoned cauliflower on a baking sheet in a single layer. Roast for 25-30 minutes, or until the cauliflower is tender and lightly browned, stirring halfway through.
  4. Prepare the Dressing: While the cauliflower is roasting, whisk together lemon juice, honey, and minced garlic in a small bowl. Set aside.
  5. Assemble the Salad: In a large salad bowl, combine the roasted cauliflower, pomegranate seeds, chopped parsley, chopped mint, and toasted almonds.
  6. Toss and Serve: Drizzle the salad with the prepared dressing and toss gently to combine. Serve immediately or refrigerate for up to one day to allow flavors to meld.
