Season the vegetables with pepper and salt and next roast the vegetables for 15 – 20 minutes in the oven until the cauliflower starts to brown.
- Put the mint (without stalks), coriander (with stalks) and curly parsley (with stalks) together with the red pepper, garlic clove, lime juice and 3 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil in a food processor. Mix until you get a smooth herbal oil. Add an extra tablespoon of olive oil if needed. Season the green herb oil with salt and pepper.
- Mix 2 teaspoons of green herb oil with the roasted vegetables. Spoon the hummus onto a large platter and spread out the roasted vegetables on top. Sprinkle the vegetables with some green herb oil.
- Serve the remaining herb oil for dipping and the flatbread as side dish.
