Meanwhile, clean cauliflower, wash and divide into florets. Mix with 2 tbsp. olive oil, Ras el-Hanout, turmeric, salt, and pepper and spread on a baking tray. Bake in a preheated oven at 200 °C / 400 °C for approx. 20 minutes.

3.

Meanwhile, peel and finely dice the onion. Wash parsley, shake dry and chop coarsely. Wash spinach and shake dry.

For the dip, put yogurt in a bowl. Wash mint, shake dry, chop finely, add to yogurt with lemon zest and juice and mix well. Season dip with salt and pepper. Toast sunflower seeds in a hot pan without fat for 2 minutes, then let cool; set aside some seeds.

Drain the lentils and leave to drain. Arrange cauliflower with lentils, diced onion, parsley and spinach on a platter and drizzle with remaining oil.
