Roasting the cauliflower and red onions in the oven helps mellow their bite and makes them nice and tender. A curried Greek yogurt sauce made with shredded cucumber, mint, and cumin seeds is a terrific complement to the sweet vegetables. For a little bit of heat, you can add some cayenne pepper to the vegetable mixture before roasting, or serve with Sriracha to drizzle onto the vegetables at the table. Also, you can make this a main dish by serving with basmati rice or by adding rinsed, drained chickpeas to the baking sheet during the last 10 minutes of roasting time.
