Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 1 head head of cauliflower, cut into florets
  • 4 cloves cloves of garlic, minced
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Optional: Fresh parsley for garnish

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
  2. In a large bowl, toss the cauliflower florets with olive oil, minced garlic, salt, and pepper until well-coated.
  3. Spread the seasoned cauliflower on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper in a single layer.
Roasting
  1. Roast the cauliflower for about 20-25 minutes, until fork-tender and slightly crispy on the edges.
  2. Remove from the oven and sprinkle the grated Parmesan over the hot cauliflower. Toss gently to ensure it adheres.
  3. Return to the oven for an additional 5 minutes to allow the cheese to melt.
Serving
  1. Let the dish rest for a few minutes. Sprinkle with fresh parsley, if using, before serving.
