Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Wash the cauliflower head thoroughly, remove the leaves, and cut the cauliflower into bite-sized florets.
In a large mixing bowl, combine olive oil, garlic powder, nutmeg, salt, and black pepper. Stir well to create a seasoning mixture.
Add the cauliflower florets to the bowl and toss them until evenly coated with the seasoning mixture.
Spread the seasoned cauliflower evenly across the prepared baking sheet in a single layer.
Roast the cauliflower in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, flipping the florets halfway through cooking to ensure even browning.
Once the cauliflower is golden brown and tender, remove it from the oven.
Transfer the roasted cauliflower to a serving dish and garnish with freshly chopped parsley before serving.
