Equipment
Ingredients
- 1 head cauliflower approximately 4 cups florets
- 2 Tablespoons olive oil
- ½ teaspoon coarse sea salt
- ½ teaspoon turmeric
- ½ teaspoon cumin
- ½ teaspoon paprika
- ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425
- PREPARE CAULIFLOWER: First cut cauliflower in half down through the core. Then, trim off the leaves and bottom. Then cut into florets.
- WASH CAULIFLOWER: Place florets into a bowl of lightly salted water. If there are any bugs lodged within the florets, they will be forced out and float to the top. Let it soak for about a minute. Drain cauliflower and place on a kitchen towel to dry off.
- Spread cauliflower florets onto a rimmed baking tray that will fit it all in one layer.
- Drizzle cauliflower with olive oil. Mix so oil is evenly distributed. Sprinkle on spices and then mix thoroughly. This is easiest done with your hands or a large pair of tongs.
- Roast for 20 minutes, until crisp on the edges and tender inside.
Notes
SINGLE LAYER: If cauliflower is crowded on the baking tray it will steam rather than roast. Make sure cauliflower fits in a single layer, or use two baking trays.
