InstructionsInstructionsInstructions
Heat a barbecue grill or chargrill pan on medium-high. Place cauliflower florets in a bowl. Drizzle with 1 tablespoon oil. Season with salt and pepper. Toss to coat. Cook, turning occasionally, for 12 minutes or until charred and almost tender. Reserve 1 1/2 cups small florets for serving.
Heat 1 1/2 tablespoons oil in a saucepan over medium-low heat. Add rosemary, garlic and lemon rind. Cook, stirring, for 30 seconds or until aromatic. Stir in beans for 1 minute. Add water, lemon juice and the remaining cooked cauliflower. Cook, covered, stirring occasionally, for 5-7 minutes or until cauliflower is tender.
Use a stick blender to blend the cauliflower-bean mixture until almost smooth. Season well with salt and pepper.
Drizzle steak with remaining oil. Season generously with salt and pepper. Cook on the hot grill, turning once, for about 5 minutes for medium or until cooked to your liking. Rest for 3 minutes before slicing.
Divide the cauliflower and bean mash among plates. Top with sliced steak. Sprinkle with reserved charred cauliflower florets. Serve with steamed greens and a drizzle of extra olive oil. Add lemon wedges on the side if desired.
