In a microwave-safe dish, combine the cauliflower, olive oil, 1/2 tsp salt, 3 whole garlic cloves and 2 tbsp water. Microwave for about 15 minutes or until softened and darkened in colour.

Put the cauliflower mixture into a blender or food processor and blend. Add the tahini paste, lemon juice, 2 raw garlic cloves, olive oil, and remaining salt. Blend until mostly smooth. Taste and adjust seasoning as necessary.

To serve, place the hummus in a bowl and drizzle with extra virgin olive oil and a sprinkle of paprika. Use thinly sliced tart apples, celery sticks, raw radish chip, or other vegetables for dipping.
