Ingredients

1 small cauliflower
3 tbsp olive oil
2 tbsp medium curry powder
2 large tomatoes, finely chopped
1 red onion, finely chopped
½ bunch of coriander, finely chopped
2 tbsp mayonnaise
3 tbsp Greek yogurt
2 tbsp curry paste
4 burger buns
2 handfuls of bombay mix, (optional)

Method

Heat the oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Pull the leaves off the cauliflower and cut off the base, then slice into 2cm-thick steaks. Mix the oil with the curry powder. Lay the cauliflower steaks on a flat baking tray lined with foil. Brush each one generously with the curry oil on both sides, and sprinkle with salt before roasting for 25-30 mins until tender.
In a bowl, mix together the tomatoes, onion, coriander and a pinch of salt. In a second bowl mix together the mayonnaise, yogurt and curry paste.
Toast the buns cut-side down in a dry frying pan. Top each bun with a dollop of curried mayo, the cauliflower steak, some more curried mayo, the tomato and onion mix and some bombay mix, if you like.
