 Roasted Cauliflower Recipe


Roasted Cauliflower Recipe

Roasting cauliflower brings out its natural sweetness and creates a crispy, caramelized texture. It's an easy, healthy side dish that's full of flavor.


Ingredients

(Serves 4)

  • 1 medium head of cauliflower, cut into florets
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder (or 2 cloves garlic, minced)
  • 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika (optional, for extra flavor)
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
  • Fresh herbs (parsley or thyme) for garnish (optional)
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice (optional, for a fresh finish)

Instructions

1. Prepare the Cauliflower

  • Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  • Remove the outer leaves and stem of the cauliflower and cut it into bite-sized florets.
  • Place the florets on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper for easy cleanup.

2. Season the Cauliflower

  • Drizzle the cauliflower florets with olive oil and toss them to coat evenly.
  • Sprinkle the garlic powder, smoked paprika (if using), salt, and pepper over the cauliflower, and toss again to ensure the florets are evenly seasoned.

3. Roast the Cauliflower

  • Spread the cauliflower florets out in a single layer on the baking sheet.
  • Roast in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the cauliflower is golden brown and crispy around the edges. Stir halfway through cooking to ensure even roasting.

4. Finish and Serve

  • Once roasted, remove the cauliflower from the oven and drizzle with a little lemon juice, if desired, for a fresh burst of flavor.
  • Garnish with fresh herbs like parsley or thyme for a pop of color.
  • Serve warm as a side dish.

Tips

  • For Extra Crispiness: Make sure the cauliflower florets are spread in a single layer, and don’t overcrowd them on the baking sheet.
  • Add Flavor: For a more intense flavor, try adding Parmesan cheese during the last 5 minutes of roasting.
  • Variations: Add a sprinkle of red pepper flakes for a spicy kick or roasted nuts for added crunch.

This Roasted Cauliflower is a simple, nutritious, and flavorful side dish that pairs well with almost any meal! 🧄🌿
