Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 head cauliflower
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon turmeric powder
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil for easy cleanup.
Wash and trim the cauliflower, then cut it into bite-sized florets. Pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel to remove excess moisture.
In a large mixing bowl, combine olive oil, turmeric powder, ground cumin, paprika, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Whisk the mixture until smooth.
Add the cauliflower florets to the bowl and toss until the spices evenly coat each piece.
Spread the seasoned cauliflower florets in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they are not overcrowded for even roasting.
Roast the cauliflower in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden brown and tender.
Remove the cauliflower from the oven and transfer it to a serving dish. Drizzle with fresh lemon juice and sprinkle with chopped parsley, if desired.
Serve warm as a side dish, or enjoy it as a healthy snack or meal on its own.
