This Roasted Cauliflower with Chermoula recipe makes a quick and easy dinner option in our house.
Chunky and hearty cauliflower has a satisfying and filling texture which is ideal for meat-free dishes. Here I have added chickpeas to give this recipe a plant-based protein boost.
Chermoula is a North African spice paste that contains fresh coriander, cumin and lemon. If I have time I’ll make the chermoula from scratch but more often than not I use Belazu’s Chermoula which is super tasty and delicious.
You can serve this dish with couscous or quinoa (adding 1 tsp turmeric in for flavour).
I hope you enjoy this roasted cauliflower with chermoula recipe as much as we do. If you make this recipe, don’t forget to tag me on Instagram!

Thank you Annabelle that was delicious! I just happened to have bought a Belazu’s chermoula jar a couple of days ago and didn’t quite know what to do with it…. And then I come across your recipe! Very easy to make and very filling too with the couscous. I didn’t have enough cauliflower so I added some long stem broccoli together with the rest of tbe veggies and it worked really well. Will do it again! (must use that chermoula jar ;-))
So glad you enjoyed it Caroline. Great idea to add the broccoli!
