Ingredients
- ¼ teaspoon salt, plus more to taste
- ¼ teaspoon sugar
- 1 head cauliflower, cut into florets
- ½ cup thinly sliced spring onions
- ⅓ cup finely chopped flat-leaf parsley
- ⅓ cup finely chopped mint
- ¼ cup nigella seeds (black onion seeds)
- ¼ cup toasted sesame seeds
- ¼ cup extra-virgin olive oil
- Zest and juice from 2 lemons
Optional Ingredients
- ¼ cup dried barberries (also called zereshk; optional)
Directions
- In a small container, combine the barberries with ¼ cup lukewarm water, ¼ teaspoon each of salt and sugar, and allow to reconstitute, about 30 minutes. Strain and set aside.
- Working in batches, pulse the cauliflower in a food processor until it has broken down into pea-size crumbles. Transfer to a large mixing bowl along with the barberries, onions, parsley, mint, nigella seeds, sesame seeds, olive oil and lemon zest and juice. Season generously with salt and toss. Serve immediately.
