COOKING & ASSEMBLY
To prepare the Green Tahini Yogurt, in a blender or food processor, combine the parsley, tahini, yogurt, Preserved Lemon Paste, garlic, water, and salt. Blend until smooth and creamy. Taste and adjust the seasoning as needed. Set aside.
To prepare the Cauliflower & Chickpea Shawarma, preheat the oven to 450°F. On a parchment-lined baking sheet, toss the cauliflower and chickpeas with olive oil, Shawarma Spice, and salt. Roast for 20–25 minutes, until tender and golden on the edges.
To assemble, spread the Green Tahini Yogurt on a serving platter. Top with the roasted cauliflower and chickpeas, drizzle with a little olive oil if desired, and sprinkle with scallions. Serve warm or at room temperature.
