    Last year my husband commented that throwing the leaves in the compost seemed to be a waste. And we already roasted kale so would this be no different? And it wasn’t! Proper yummy and no more cauliflower leaves in the compost!

      Hey Hannah, that’s great to hear! Thank you so much for using my recipe, hopefully save those leaves from the compost for good. If you don’t have harissa in, you can always just use good old olive oil, salt & pepper and it’ll still be delicious.
