Cauliflower Salad Sandwiches Recipe (2024)

Delicious! Would taste better if the curry is stir fried in oil before adding to the cauliflower. Baking alone still leaves a slightly raw taste.

try adding some garbanzos if you need this to be a "complete meal"

This was delicious. I will add celery next time and possibly a bit of chutney (as Ina Garten does in her curried chicken salad).

WOW, yes. Doubled the recipe and used garam masala in place of curry powder. Kids loved it, everyone loved it.

According to the USDA, a large head of cauliflower contains 16g of protein. A cup of walnuts contains 12 g. Add that to the yogurt and it seems like you're doing pretty well!

This was delicious! To make this vegan I replaced the yoghurt with some homemade cashew cream that I had on hand. I also used golden raisins. I will add this to my spring/summer recipe rotation.

I had all the ingredients on hand except for the hoagies. Since I was making the recipe only for myself, I scaled it accordingly. I served the salad tucked in pita bread. I have discovered thick whole-wheat pitas that do not fall apart when stuffed. I could see using the cauliflower salad on a bed of greens. I love cauliflower and was running out of ways to prepare it. Thanks for this great recipe!

I will substitute cashews for the walnuts. I think they go better with curry than walnuts and I love cashews!

This looked awesome, so I made it! I wasn’t in the mood for a meaty dinner and found this under a vegetarian suggestion. The only thing I changed was I used all cilantro as I didn’t have parsley, and I put it in some “extra” toasted hot dog buns. This salad/sandwich was just what was needed! Thanks, Ham! I enjoy your recipes!

Cut head in half. Put one half flat side down on a cutting board. Slice in 1 inch slices. Repeat with the other half. Break all the slices into florets. Alternatively, do whatever you want to end up with little pieces.

Try it without the raisins and apple. Double the curry powder, add some cumin powder, red chili and turmeric powder.

Agree, Liz in MA. These days, many nutritionists recommend looking at your macronutrients over the course of a week, rather than one day or one meal. Also, unless they are on a very restricted diet, most Americans are not protein deficient.

Nice for a change but still prefer Melissa Clark's Cauliflower Shawarma With Spicy Tahini for a great cauliflower sandwich.

Replaced yogurt with hummus and mayo with veganese to make vegan.Added green onion, as well as turmeric, garlic powder and pepper to curry as well. Very good in a pita too.

Delicious! Add mango chutney.

Fresh, lively, balanced with sweet and savory. One of the best NYT recipes ever!!

I made the salad for a picnic on an unexpectedly warm sunny afternoon. They were a hit! I did follow a commenters suggestion to toast the curry powder and I also used small brioche rolls which I’m glad I did. I think they kept the salad from spilling out the edges. Very tasty and satisfying.

The note (thank you!) about putting the raisins in with the toasting nuts to absorb the oil (I used peanuts, and I wouldn't skip the nuts if you don't have to) was essential and helped the raisins really show up. A little apple goes a long way. I used more yogurt than mayonnaise for less fat. Be generous in seasoning. This recipe is vegetarian joy. So good.

Used fat free mayo and yoghurt. Added Splenda

I often use recipes as a starting point and adjust to my family’s taste buds. Also, I eyeball a lot of the ingredients then adjust as needed. Qualifiers aside, this was really good! Like others, I made a few minor adjustments to suit my household . . . 1) added some celery salt to the mayo/yogurt mixture 2) skipped the oil on the toasted nuts and just added extra curry powder along with the celery salt 3) used hamburger buns since we had them in the pantry from veggie burgers earlier in the week

I had cashews on hand and they were just delicious in place of the walnuts. Great sandwich filling with lots of nutritious ingredients!

Thought it was good, but not great. A little sweet/ not enough punch in the salad. Might want to make it more savory next time.

best sammy ever! so delish - I'm in Philly area so I used Amoroso bread - a keeper!

Household loved this. Few notes:1) mis-read TSP in spices for TBSP (oops) DId combo of curry powder and garam masala, but with my accidental misread, was a bit spice heavy. ADDED bit of crumbled, lightly skillet cooked tofu to the dish - will keep as addition in the future. 2) did have on sandwiches, but just on it's own. Added celery (highly recommend) and bit of shaved carrots (few no raisin fans here) for sweetness and had some radishes & scallions added. YUM!

Loved it. Perfect for a lettuce wrap!

I've made this recipe a bunch of times. Love it. A few notes: unless you just can't with raisins (no judgement), maybe a sweeter apple, as the hit of sweet from the raisins is nice. I do recommend the step with the walnuts. I've done it both ways (plain walnuts and toasted ones). The latter is better though the former is fine too (and saves on oil if you care). I also add a few stalks of celery and only do greek yogurt because I c an't even with mayo : )

Not only is this my new favorite vegetarian lunch, it's also now my chicken salad recipe! Sub roasted chicken for the cauliflower and put all of the curry powder into the walnut mixture.

This was really delicious, easy and made for a really great lunch the next day for work.

I made this with raw chopped cauliflower after making it as per the recipe. The only changes were to sprinkle the cauli with the curry and toss, then use all vegan mayo. Equally delicious!
