ROAST
Preheat the oven to 200°C. Spread the cauliflower pieces and the Onion wedges on a roasting tray. Coat in oil and season. Roast in the hot oven until crispy, 15-20 minutes (shifting halfway).
TOAST
Place the sunflower seeds in a pan over medium heat. Toast until golden brown, 2-3 minutes (shifting occasionally). Remove from the pan and set aside.
SCHNITTY
Return the pan to medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. Pat the schnitzel dry with paper towel. When hot, sear the schnitzel until browned, 30-60 seconds per side. In the final 30 seconds, baste with a knob of butter and the NOMU rub. Remove from the pan and season.
CHEESE SAUCE
Place a small pot over medium heat with 10g of butter. Once melted, vigorously mix in the flour to form a roux. Cook out the flour, 1-2 minutes (stirring constantly). Slowly whisk in the milk. Once the milk is incorporated, loosen with a splash of water, and add the grated cheese. Stir until melted, season, and remove from the heat. Add a splash of water or milk (optional) if the sauce is too thick.
SALAD LEAVES
In a bowl, combine the shredded salad leaves, the sunflower seeds, a drizzle of olive oil, and seasoning.
