Originally from Egypt, dukkah is a blend of herbs and spices, whose warming flavor complements rich roasted pork in this dish. For a unique side, we’re serving a medley of raw and roasted vegetables tossed in a nutty tahini dressing.
Get CookingPreheat the oven to 450°F. Wash and dry the fresh produce. Line a sheet pan with aluminum foil. Cut out and discard the core of the cauliflower; cut the head into small florets. Place on the prepared sheet pan. Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper; toss to coat. Transfer to the prepared sheet pan and arrange in an even layer. Roast 25 to 27 minutes, or until lightly browned and tender when pierced with a fork. Remove from the oven.
While the cauliflower roasts, line a separate sheet pan with aluminum foil. Pat the pork dry with paper towels; place in a bowl. Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt, pepper, and the dukkah; turn to coat. Transfer to the prepared sheet pan. Roast 25 to 27 minutes, or until browned and cooked through (an instant-read thermometer should register 145°F). Remove from the oven. Transfer the roasted pork to a cutting board and let rest at least 5 minutes.
While the pork roasts, halve the cucumbers lengthwise, then thinly slice crosswise. Roughly chop the peppers. Combine in a bowl; drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Stir to coat. If necessary, peel 1 garlic clove. Finely chop the clove; using the flat side of your knife, smash until it resembles a paste (or use a zester). To make the dressing, in a large bowl, whisk together the tahini, vinegar, 1 tablespoon of water, and as much of the garlic paste as you’d like. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
While the pork rests, to the bowl of dressing, add the prepared cucumbers and peppers and roasted cauliflower. Season with salt and pepper; toss to coat. Find the lines of muscle (or grain) on the rested pork; thinly slice crosswise against the grain. Serve the sliced pork with the salad on the side. Enjoy!
