Butter-Roasted Cauliflower Recipe

This Butter-Roasted Cauliflower is a rich and savory side dish that brings out the best of the cauliflower’s natural flavors, with a crispy, golden exterior and a tender inside. The butter adds a delicious depth of flavor, making it the perfect complement to any meal.


Ingredients

(Serves 4)

  • 1 medium head of cauliflower, cut into florets
  • 3 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced (optional)
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika (optional for extra flavor)
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
  • Fresh herbs (parsley or thyme) for garnish (optional)
  • Lemon wedges (optional, for serving)

Instructions

1. Preheat the Oven

  • Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

2. Prepare the Cauliflower

  • Cut the cauliflower into florets, ensuring they are of similar size for even roasting.
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine the melted butter, olive oil, minced garlic (if using), smoked paprika, salt, and pepper.

3. Toss the Cauliflower

  • Add the cauliflower florets to the bowl and toss them well to coat with the butter and oil mixture. Make sure the florets are evenly coated for the best flavor and roasting result.

4. Roast the Cauliflower

  • Spread the cauliflower florets in a single layer on a baking sheet. Make sure there is enough space between the pieces to allow them to roast evenly and get crispy.
  • Roast for 25-30 minutes, or until the cauliflower is golden brown and crispy on the edges, stirring halfway through for even roasting.

5. Finish and Serve

  • Remove from the oven and garnish with fresh herbs like parsley or thyme, if desired.
  • Optionally, serve with lemon wedges for a burst of fresh flavor.
  • Serve warm as a side dish.

Tips

  • For Extra Crispiness: Make sure the cauliflower florets are spread out in a single layer on the baking sheet, with some space between them to allow for even browning.
  • Add Some Heat: Sprinkle with red pepper flakes before roasting for a spicy kick.
  • Flavor Boost: You can add grated Parmesan cheese during the last 5 minutes of roasting for a cheesy, crispy crust.

This Butter-Roasted Cauliflower is simple yet indulgent, making it a perfect side dish for any occasion! 🧄🍋
