Instructions

In a medium bowl, whisk together Greek yogurt, buttermilk, tahini, lemon juice, dill, chives, onion powder, garlic powder, grated garlic, and salt until smooth. Set aside.
Preheat oven to 450°F (230°C). On a large sheet pan, toss cauliflower florets with olive oil, Aleppo pepper, and salt until evenly coated.
Roast for 30–35 minutes, tossing halfway through, until golden brown and tender.
Transfer cauliflower to a serving platter, drizzle with tahini ranch, and garnish with dill and chives. Serve warm.

Add crushed red pepper flakes or smoked paprika for extra heat.
Use vegan yogurt and plant-based buttermilk for a dairy-free version.
Sprinkle toasted sesame seeds or chopped nuts for added crunch.
Swap cauliflower with broccoli, Brussels sprouts, or carrots for variety.
