Ingredients

For the vegetables:

  • 1 head of broccoli
  • 250 g cooked white beans (large variety)
  • 1 red onion
  • 1/2 tsp smoked paprika
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • Olive oil

For the tofu cream:

  • 230 g firm salted tofu
  • 60 g raw cashews
  • 2 tbsp nutritional yeast
  • 1 garlic clove
  • 60 ml water

For serving:

  • Parsley

Cooking instructions. Step by step

  1. Trim the broccoli and cut it into bite-size florets. Spread them out on a baking sheet.
  2. Add the cooked white beans, thinly sliced red onion, smoked paprika, garlic powder, salt, pepper, and a drizzle of olive oil. Toss well to coat everything evenly.
  3. Roast the vegetables at 200°C (400°F) for 10–15 minutes, until the broccoli is tender and the beans are lightly browned.
  4. Meanwhile, make the cream: blend the salted tofu, cashews, nutritional yeast, garlic, and a little water until smooth and creamy.
  5. To assemble, spread a generous layer of tofu cream on a plate, top with the roasted vegetables, and finish with chopped parsley and pomegranate seeds for extra flavor, color, and texture.
