Ingredients
For the roasted romanesco:
2 heads romanesco cauliflower , cut into 2-inch florets
1/4 cup olive oil
1 tsp ground cumin
1 tsp allspice
salt and pepper , to taste
1/4 cup pomegranate seeds
For the tahini sauce:
2 tbsp tahini
2 tbsp lemon juice
1/4 tsp garlic powder
salt and pepper , to taste

Instructions
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
Place the Romanesco florets on a large baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with cumin, allspice, salt and pepper. Toss well and spread in a single layer.
Roast for 20-30 minutes, tossing halfway through until the cauliflower is tender but still firm. Remove from the oven and let cool slightly while you make the sauce.
