I am a roasted cauliflower fanatic and this is one with lots of powerful spices. This dish can be served hot, at room temperature or even chilled the next day. So versatile and an explosion of taste in the mouth for very few calories!
Serves 4
1 large head cauliflower, cut into florets (about 6 cups)
1 cup diced red onions
1/4 cup canola oil
1/2 tbsp curry powder
1/2 tbsp garam masala
1/2 tbsp fennel seeds
1/4 tsp crushed red chile flakes
2 tsp salt
3 large garlic cloves, minced
1 tbsp grated fresh ginger
1/2 tbsp grated lemon zest
1 tsp freshly ground black pepper
1/2 cup frozen peas, thawed
1/4 cup roughly chopped fresh cilantro
Preheat the oven to 400 F
Place the cauliflower, onions, canola oil, curry powder, garam masala, lemon zest, fennel seeds, red chile flakes, salt , garlic, ginger and pepper in a large bowl.
Toss the ingredients together and blend until each piece of cauliflower is coated with the oil and spices.
Place the mixture in a large baking pan and roast for 30 mins until the cauliflower is crisp tender, turning the cauliflower every 10 mins to cook evenly.
When done, the cauliflower should be golden brown so you might need to cook it a little more, depending on your oven.
Place the cauliflower in a large serving bowl and mix in the peas and cilantro
