Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams cauliflower florets
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon yellow curry powder
- 0.5 teaspoons ground cumin
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
- 4 pieces eggs
- 100 grams cheddar cheese, grated
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
In a large bowl, toss the cauliflower florets with olive oil, curry powder, ground cumin, salt, and black pepper until evenly coated.
Spread the seasoned cauliflower on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer. Roast in the preheated oven for 15 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the cauliflower is lightly golden and tender.
While the cauliflower is roasting, prepare the eggs. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and lightly grease it with a small amount of oil or butter.
Crack the eggs into the skillet and cook until the whites are set but the yolks remain runny, or to your preferred level of doneness. Remove from heat and set aside.
Once the cauliflower is roasted, transfer it to an oven-safe dish. Sprinkle the grated cheddar cheese evenly over the top.
Place the dish back in the oven for 5 minutes, or until the cheese is fully melted and bubbling.
Remove the dish from the oven. Top the cheesy cauliflower with the cooked eggs, garnishing with freshly chopped parsley if desired.
Serve hot and enjoy your Quick and Easy Lightly Curried Cauliflower and Egg Cheese!
