Ingredients
- Ingredients:
- 1 large head of cauliflower, trimmed and cut into small florets (smaller florets will cook faster and develop deeper flavours)
- 1 whole head of garlic
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 teaspoons salt
- 1 teaspoon fresh ground pepper
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1/4c minced fresh parsley, optional
Directions
-
Directions:
-
Preheat oven to 450F.
-
While the oven is preheating, separate the garlic cloves. Give each clove a good smash with the end of your knife. This will help to release the oils and make it easier to peel the garlic. Cut large cloves into two lengthwise.
-
On a large baking sheet, toss together cauliflower, garlic, olive oil, salt and fresh ground pepper. Make sure the florets are well coated with oil and spread the mixture on single layer.
-
Roast 20 – 25 minutes, stirring once or twice in between. The cauliflower is ready when they become tender and golden brown.
-
Remove baking sheet from oven, add in lemon juice, and another good pinch of salt and pepper. Stir the mixture well once again and transfer the cauliflower into a large bowl. Garnish with parsley, if using, and serve immediately. Enjoy!
