Roasted Cauliflower Steak with Olive Oil Mash and Tomato & Olive Salsa
The roasted vegan cauliflower steak is incredibly easy to make. Keep the seasoning simple and let the flavour of the extra virgin olive oil shine through.
The extra virgin olive oil adds smoothness and flavour to the mashed potatoes, making it brighter, lighter and so much tastier.
To save time, make the roasted tomato & olive oil salsa can in advance and store it in the fridge in an airtight container: it keeps for at least 3 days.
