Description

A stunning centerpiece dish that transforms a humble vegetable into an elegant meal with a crispy exterior and tender, flavorful insides.


Ingredients

  • 1 whole cauliflower
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 teaspoon cumin
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Fresh parsley for garnish (optional)


Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Remove the leaves from the cauliflower and trim the stem so it can sit flat.
  3. In a bowl, mix olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, cumin, salt, and pepper.
  4. Brush the mixture all over the cauliflower, making sure to cover it thoroughly.
  5. Place the cauliflower on a baking sheet, and roast for about 40-50 minutes, or until tender and golden brown.
  6. Remove from the oven, let it cool slightly, and garnish with fresh parsley before serving.

Notes

For added flavor, consider marinating the cauliflower in the spice mixture for an hour before roasting.
