Ingredients :
– 1 large cauliflower, cut into florets
– 3 tablespoons of olive oil
– 1/2 teaspoon of garlic powder
– 1/2 teaspoon of smoked paprika
– 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper
– 1/2 teaspoon of salt
– 2 tablespoons of grated Parmesan cheese (optional)
– Optional: chopped parsley or lemon juice for garnish
Instructions:
Preheat the oven to 220°C (425°F). In a large bowl, toss the cauliflower florets with the olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper until well coated. Spread in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Roast for 25-30 minutes, turning halfway through, until golden brown and crisp around the edges. If using, sprinkle Parmesan cheese over the cauliflower during the last 5 minutes of roasting. Remove from the oven, garnish with parsley or a squeeze of lemon juice, and serve hot.
