Crispy Roasted Cauliflower recipe

Here’s a simple and tasty recipe for Crispy Roasted Cauliflower:

Ingredients:

• 1 medium head of cauliflower
• 2 tbsp olive oil
• 1 tsp garlic powder
• 1 tsp smoked paprika (or regular paprika)
• 1/2 tsp ground turmeric (optional, for color and flavor)
• Salt and pepper, to taste
• 1 tbsp lemon juice (optional, for brightness)
• Fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)

Instructions:

1. Preheat Oven:
   Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).

2. Prepare Cauliflower:
   Wash and dry the cauliflower thoroughly. Cut the cauliflower into bite-sized florets, removing the core and any tough stems.

3. Season the Cauliflower:
   In a large mixing bowl, toss the cauliflower florets with olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, turmeric, salt, and pepper. Make sure the florets are evenly coated.

4. Roast the Cauliflower:
   Spread the seasoned cauliflower in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat. For extra crispiness, make sure the florets aren’t overcrowded.

5. Roast for 25-30 minutes:
   Roast the cauliflower in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, flipping once halfway through. The cauliflower should be golden brown and crispy around the edges.

6. Optional Lemon and Garnish:
   Once roasted, drizzle with fresh lemon juice (if using) and garnish with chopped parsley for a fresh, vibrant finish.

7. Serve:
   Serve immediately as a side dish or a snack. You can also pair it with a dipping sauce, like tahini or a creamy yogurt dip.

Enjoy your crispy, flavorful roasted cauliflower!
