Hummus & Curried Cauliflower Tartine

This hummus and curried cauliflower tartine is a vibrant vegan dish that brings a sophisticated twist to a standard open-faced sandwich. The combination of warm, earth spices like turmeric and cumin against the creamy, cool hummus creates a wonderful contrast of flavour and texture. By roasting the cauliflower at a high temperature, you achieve a delicate char that adds a nutty depth to every bite, perfectly complemented by the tang of fresh lemon and the herbal notes of thyme.

Ideal for a healthy lunch or a light weekend brunch, this recipe is packed with plant-based protein and wholesome ingredients. Using sourdough as the base provides a sturdy, slightly sour foundation that carries the rich toppings beautifully. While the hummus can be prepared in advance, the final assembly is quick and effortless, making it an excellent choice for a nutritious homemade meal that feels like a treat from a boutique cafe.

How to make Hummus & Curried Cauliflower Tartine

Start by making the curried cauliflower. Preheat the oven to 218°C (220°C/gas mark 7). In a bowl, toss the cauliflower with the spices, thyme leaves and olive oil, mixing well. Transfer to an ovenproof dish and roast in the oven for 10-15 minutes, until lightly brown on top. Remove from the oven and set aside to cool.

Place all the hummus ingredients into a food processor or use a handheld blender to process until smooth. If necessary, use a little of the reserved chickpea liquid to thin the mixture to a smooth purée. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.

To serve, spread the hummus on the bread and top with the curried cauliflower. Sprinkle the spring onion (spring onion) on top and drizzle with the olive oil.
