Method

15 mins 1 hour 4 ppl

• Step 1 Preheat oven to 200 degrees.
• Step 2 Mix together the ingredients (garlic, mint, honey, crushed mustard seeds, ground cumin, soy sauce, oil, pepper, lemon juice).
• Step 3 Wash and trim the cauliflower leaves leaving the big stem intact. Cut in to 1-inch thick pieces - be careful! We want to keep the slices intact.
• Step 4 Gently rub marinade all over the the steaks and place in the oven for 45 mins
• Step 5 While the steaks are cooking, peel and chop the potatoes in to quarters, place in a saucepan of cold water and bring to the boil. Boil for 15 minutes or until soft.
• Step 6 Drain water and leave for 5 mins to let the steam evaporate (this reduces the water). Then proceed to mash with either a masher or ricer. When mashed, add the butter and mash/combine again. We want this silky smooth.
• Step 7 Remove steaks from oven after 45 mins, and get a frying pan heated on medium-high heat. When hot gently place the steaks in with 50g of butter, just to brown and finish them off (watch out for burning, they'll brown up pretty quick).
• Step 8 Place a good scoop of mash on the plate, use the back of the spoon and push it across the plate, because we're fancy. Place a Cauliflower Steak on top, with fresh cracked pepper and a couple of mint leaves on top.
