Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 head (medium, about 2 pounds) Cauliflower
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 3 minced Garlic cloves
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 1 teaspoon Ground cumin
- 0.5 teaspoons Ground turmeric
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
- 0.25 teaspoons Red chili flakes
- 1 tablespoon Honey
- 2 tablespoons Fresh lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons, chopped Fresh cilantro
- 2 tablespoons Water
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil for easy cleanup.
Cut the cauliflower into bite-sized florets and place them into a large mixing bowl.
In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, minced garlic, paprika, cumin, turmeric, salt, black pepper, and red chili flakes.
Pour the spice mixture over the cauliflower florets and toss them until they're evenly coated.
Spread the cauliflower in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
Roast the cauliflower in the preheated oven for 20 minutes, stirring halfway through to ensure even cooking.
While the cauliflower is roasting, prepare the tangy glaze. In a small bowl, mix the honey, fresh lemon juice, and 2 tablespoons of water.
After 20 minutes of roasting, remove the cauliflower from the oven and drizzle the tangy glaze over the florets. Use a spoon or spatula to toss them gently, ensuring the glaze is evenly distributed.
Return the cauliflower to the oven and roast for an additional 5 minutes, or until the edges are golden and caramelized.
Remove from the oven and transfer to a serving dish. Garnish with fresh chopped cilantro and serve immediately.
