Step 1

Start by heating your oven to 400°F (200°C). Toss the cauliflower florets into a baking dish, then add the garlic. Give everything a good squeeze of fresh lemon juice and drizzle olive oil over the florets. Season with salt and pepper to your liking. Pop the dish into the oven and roast uncovered for about 15 to 25 minutes, until the cauliflower gets a nice golden edge. Once it’s out of the oven, sprinkle a generous amount of Parmesan cheese over the top while it’s still warm. Serve and enjoy!

Why you’ll love it

This dish is a simple way to enjoy cauliflower with a deliciously crispy texture and a savory, cheesy finish. It’s both healthy and satisfying, making it a great side for any meal. Plus, the roasting brings out a natural sweetness in the cauliflower that pairs perfectly with the Parmesan.

How to serve

Serve warm alongside grilled chicken, roasted meats, or as part of a vegetarian platter. It also works well tossed into salads or pasta dishes for added flavor and texture.

Storage & leftovers

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven to keep the edges crispy, avoiding the microwave if possible to prevent sogginess.
