Cauliflower has become a popular ingredient in recent years due to its versatility and nutritional value. It can be roasted, mashed, pureed, or even turned into rice or pizza crust. In this recipe, we will be roasting cauliflower with a flavourful spice - turmeric. Turmeric has been used in Indian cuisine for centuries and is known for its health benefits. It contains a compound called curcumin, which has anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties. This dish is delicious and a great way to add more vegetables to your diet. So, let's get started on this Roasted Cauliflower with Turmeric recipe!
Roasted Cauliflower with Turmeric
Prep Time: 10 minutes | Cook Time: 25 minutes
Ingredients:
• 1 large head cauliflower
• 1 tsp garlic powder
• 1 tsp onion powder
• ½ tsp ground turmeric
• ½ tsp sea salt
• ¼ cup avocado oil
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 400°F.
2. Chop the cauliflower into florets*
3. Mix the spices and avocado oil in a measuring cup and whisk with a fork to combine.
4. Place florets in a large mixing bowl and coat them with oil and spice mixture. It is best to use your hands to ensure all the florets are nicely coated; you will want to wear gloves.
5. Line a baking sheet with unbleached parchment paper, then place the cauliflower on the baking sheet. Ensure the pieces are in a single layer; use another baking sheet if necessary. Roast for 25 minutes until the cauliflower is tender and browned, stirring once at the 15-minute mark.
6. Serve immediately.
TIP: In my culinary nutrition course, I discovered a handy technique for cutting cauliflower with ease. First, grab a clean kitchen tea towel large enough to wrap around the cauliflower. Then, wrap the tea towel around the cauliflower and place the stem end down on a cutting board. Use a forceful motion to smash the cauliflower on the board 5 to 10 times until the florets separate from the stem. If you're feeling bold, you can skip the tea towel, but be prepared for the possibility of florets flying all over the place.
