Ingredients

Cauliflower
1 large head
Olive oil
3 tablespoons
Paprika
1 teaspoon
Garlic powder
1 teaspoon
Cumin
1 teaspoon
Black pepper
1/2 teaspoon
Salt
1/2 teaspoon
Fresh parsley
2 tablespoons, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Remove the leaves from the cauliflower and trim the stem, ensuring it can sit flat. Cut the cauliflower into thick slices, about 1-inch thick, to create 'steaks'.
  3. In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, paprika, garlic powder, cumin, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
  4. Using a brush or your hands, generously coat both sides of each cauliflower slice with the spice mixture.
  5. Place the seasoned cauliflower steaks on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, ensuring they are not overcrowded.
  6. Roast in the oven for about 30 minutes, flipping halfway through, or until the cauliflower is tender and slightly golden brown.
  7. Once roasted, remove from the oven and let cool slightly. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley before serving.

Tips

  • 💡 For an extra flavor kick, try adding a splash of lemon juice or a drizzle of balsamic vinegar before serving.
  • 💡 Pair with a creamy tahini sauce or a spicy harissa dressing for added depth and flavor.
  • 💡 Experiment with different spices such as smoked paprika or curry powder for a variation on the flavor profile.
