Delicious Roasted Turmeric Cauliflower Recipe for a Healthy Meal

Ingredients

Servings:
6
  • 1 medium head cauliflower (cut into florets)
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon ground turmeric
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper
  • 2 tablespoons fresh parsley (chopped, for garnish)

Instructions

6 steps

  1. Preheat the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) to prepare for roasting.

    Ensure the oven is fully heated for even cooking.
  2. Prepare the Cauliflower

    Wash and cut the cauliflower into bite-sized florets.

    Make sure the florets are roughly the same size for uniform cooking.
  3. Mix the Seasonings

    In a large bowl, combine olive oil, turmeric, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper.

    Use a whisk to ensure the spices are well blended.
  4. Coat the Cauliflower

    Add the cauliflower florets to the bowl and toss until evenly coated with the spice mixture.

    Using your hands can help ensure each floret is well coated.
  5. Roast the Cauliflower

    Spread the coated cauliflower on a baking sheet in a single layer and roast for 25-30 minutes.

    Flip the florets halfway through for even browning.
  6. Garnish and Serve

    Once golden and tender, remove from oven and garnish with fresh parsley before serving.

    Serve warm as a main course or side dish.
