Jerk Cauliflower Steaks with Coconut & Lime Sauce
🌱 Jerk Cauliflower Steaks with Coconut & Lime Sauce
Cauliflower becomes something completely different when roasted with our Jerk Seasoning. The edges turn dark and crisp, the centre stays tender, and a cool coconut and lime sauce makes a lovely contrast to the warm spices.
🥣 Ingredients
- 1 large cauliflower
- 2 tbsp Spice & Dipity Jerk Seasoning
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 150g thick coconut yoghurt
- 1 lime, zest and juice
- 1 small garlic clove, finely grated
- Small handful fresh coriander, chopped
- Cooked rice or beans, to serve
🍳 Instructions
- Heat the oven to 210°C/190°C fan/Gas 6–7.
- Remove the outer leaves from the cauliflower but keep the core intact. Cut through the centre into 2–3 thick steaks; roast any loose florets alongside them.
- Mix the olive oil with the Jerk Seasoning and brush over both sides of the cauliflower.
- Place on a lined baking tray and roast for 25–30 minutes, carefully turning once, until tender with crisp, browned edges.
- Mix the coconut yoghurt with lime zest, lime juice, garlic and coriander.
- Spoon the coconut and lime sauce over or alongside the hot cauliflower steaks.

🍽️ Serving Suggestions
Serve with rice and peas, black beans, grilled corn or a mango salad. Use a plant-based coconut yoghurt to keep the whole dish vegan.
💚 Why This Recipe Works
Roasting concentrates cauliflower's natural sweetness and gives the jerk seasoning plenty of edges to cling to. The cool coconut sauce softens the chilli heat while lime keeps the dish bright.
