Ingredients
  • 1 medium head Cauliflower
  • 3 tablespoons Olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon Turmeric powder
  • 1 teaspoon Cumin powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon Garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon Salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon Black pepper

Prepping the Cauliflower

Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F). Wash and dry the cauliflower. Remove the outer leaves and cut the cauliflower into florets of roughly the same size. This helps them cook evenly.

In a large bowl, toss the cauliflower florets with olive oil, turmeric powder, cumin powder, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Make sure the cauliflower is evenly coated with the spices.

Roasting the Cauliflower

Spread the seasoned cauliflower florets in a single layer on a baking sheet. Avoid overcrowding the pan to ensure even roasting.

Roast for 20-25 minutes, or until the cauliflower is tender and slightly browned. You can flip the florets halfway through for more even browning.

Serving

Remove from the oven and serve hot. This roasted cauliflower makes a great side dish for any keto-friendly protein, such as chicken, fish, or beef.
