Preheat oven to 200°C (390°F). Place the cauliflower and shallot in a large roasting pan. Drizzle over the oil and season with salt. Toss to combine. Roast, tossing halfway, for 35-40 minutes or until golden.
Meanwhile, place the bacon in a medium non-stick frying pan. Place over high heat and cook, stirring occasionally, for 5 minutes. Reduce heat to low. Add the pepitas and cook, stirring often, for 5 minutes or until the bacon is crisp. Add the garlic and cook for 1 minute. Set aside.
Transfer the roasted cauliflower and shallot to a bowl. Add the bacon mixture, spring onion and Miso & Sesame Vinaigrette. Toss to combine.
Transfer the salad to a serving platter and top with micro shiso leaves or pea shoots. Sprinkle with shichimi togarashi and serve.
NOTES - Shichimi togarashi is a Japanese spice blend that contains (among other things) sansho pepper, chilli powder, sesame seeds, nori and dried orange peel. It’s available from Asian supermarkets.
