Ingredients

  • 0.5 cauliflower
  • 1 can of tuna in olive oil (drained 110 g)
  • 1 tbsp capers
  • 40 g arugula
  • 0.5 red onion
  • 25 g almonds
  • 3 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 lemon
  • 1 tsp smoked paprika
  • fresh flat-leaf parsley
  • salt
  • black pepper

Preparation

  • 1

    Preheat the oven to 220 degrees. Cut the cauliflower into even-sized florets and toss them with two tablespoons of olive oil, the smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Spread them out on a baking sheet with the flat cut sides facing down: this flat contact with the hot sheet creates the deep brown, nutty edge that gives roasted cauliflower its character, whereas florets lying on their rounded sides mostly steam.

  • 2

    Roast the cauliflower for twenty-five minutes until the edges are dark. Meanwhile, halve the lemon and place the halves on the baking sheet, cut side up, for the last ten minutes; roasting makes the juice milder and sweeter.

  • 3

    Slice the red onion into paper-thin half-rings and soak them in a small bowl of cold water for five minutes; this takes off the sharp edge. Dry-roast the almonds in a small pan and roughly chop them.

  • 4

    Drain the tuna well and flake it into large chunks. Mix the lukewarm cauliflower with the arugula, the drained onion, the capers, and the tuna.

  • 5

    Squeeze the roasted lemon over it, drizzle with the remaining olive oil, and finish with the almonds, plenty of parsley, and black pepper.
