This soon-to-be summer classic uses roast cauliflower coated in a crispy, slightly spicy coconut coating as it's centerpiece. Then you combine this decadent cauliflower with minty peas, and stuffs the whole thing into a pita bread and finished it all with a fresh tahini dressing and crunchy seeds. The dish manages to be both comforting and fresh and light at the same time.

  3. Add the almond milk and the rest of the cauliflower ingredients to a separate bowl and mix them together.
  4. Dip the cauliflower into the wet ingredients and then the dry mixture in batches then pop onto a large baking tray.
  5. Bake them at 375°F for 40 minutes until they're golden and crispy.
  6. Add all the ingredients for the pea mash to your food processor and blend them together until you get a slightly chunky mash.
  7. Serve the crispy cauliflower loaded into flatbreads or pitas with the minty peas, lots of tahini dressing, mint, coriander, and toasted seeds.
