Method

  1. Cut the cauliflowers into four thick steaks and put aside on a tray.
  2. With the rest of the cauliflower trimmings, cut down into smaller pieces and place in a saucepan and cover with the semi skimmed milk and half of the smoked paprika.
  3. Place the saucepan on the stove and bring to the boil on a gentle heat. Simmer the cauliflower pieces in the milk for 5 – 10 mins until soft.
  4. Place the cooked cauliflower in a blender with the paprika milk and blend until smooth. Set aside.
  5. Brush the four cauliflower steaks with a little of the cold pressed rapeseed oil, then season with the remaining smoked paprika, salt and pepper.
  6. Place the seasoned cauliflower steaks on a hot BBQ grill and cook for approximately 8 minutes each side until soft to the touch.
  7. Remove the cooked cauliflower steaks from the BBQ and place on a tray.
  8. Place the chopped spring onions, chives, curly parsley and grated cheddar cheese in a bowl and mix together thoroughly, season with salt and pepper.
  9. Sprinkle the herb cheese topping liberally onto the BBQ cauliflower steaks and return them to the BBQ for 2 – 3 minutes to warm them through before serving.

  1. Place each cauliflower steak on a serving plate and spoon some of the smoked paprika cauliflower sauce around.
  2. A good accompaniment to this dish would be a celery, walnut and apple salad.
