A flavorful and healthy side dish featuring crispy roasted cauliflower seasoned with curry powder and spices. Perfect for potlucks, weeknight dinners, or as a vegetarian main.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 large head of cauliflower (2–3 pounds), cut into bite-sized florets
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon curry powder
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper, freshly ground
  • Fresh cilantro, optional for garnish
  • Lemon wedges, optional for serving

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Remove the leaves and stem from the cauliflower and cut it into bite-sized florets.
  3. In a small bowl, combine curry powder, ground cumin, smoked paprika, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper.
  4. In a large mixing bowl, add the cauliflower florets. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle the spice mix over them. Toss until evenly coated.
  5. Arrange the cauliflower in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring space between florets for even roasting.
  6. Roast in the oven for 25-30 minutes, flipping the florets halfway through. Look for golden-brown edges and a slightly tender texture.
  7. Transfer the roasted cauliflower to a serving dish. Garnish with fresh cilantro and serve with lemon wedges.

Notes

[‘Ensure the cauliflower is dry before tossing with oil and spices to achieve maximum crispiness.’, ‘Spread the florets evenly on the baking sheet to avoid steaming.’, ‘Use fresh spices for the best flavor.’, ‘Turn on the broiler for the last 2-3 minutes of roasting for extra crispiness.’]
