Easy Sheet Pan Roasted Cauliflower With Curry Recipes

SHEET PAN CAULIFLOWER CURRY WITH RAITA

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450°F (232°C)with a rack in the center position.
• Prepare the Cauliflower Curry: In a large mixing bowl, combine the extra virgin olive oil, jalapeno, ginger, garlic, lemon juice, garam masala, turmeric, cumin, coriander, garlic powder, and salt. Mix together throughly.
• Add the cauliflower florets and cubed potato to the bowl.
• Gently toss the cauliflower and potato in the spiced oil marinade (*note: I use my hands, but if you're sensitive to spices or heat, use disposable kitchen gloves or two large mixing spoons) until they're evenly coated. Allow the mixture to marinate for 15 to 20 minutes at room temperature as the oven preheats (*if you are short on time, you can skip this step).
• Spread the cauliflower and potatoes in an even, thin layer on a rimmed standard half sheeet pan - leaving space between the pieces to encourage even caramelization during roasting. *Note: I prefer to use an unlined sheet pan for better caramelization, but please know that turmeric is stain-prone.
• Roast for 20 to 25 minutes, rotating the pan and flipping the vegetables halfway through. Remove from the oven, distribute the chickpeas evenly onto the sheet pan, and roast for an additional 10 to 15 minutes or until the vegetables are caramelized and fork tender.
• Prepare the Raita: During roasting, prepare the raita sauce. Combine the greek yogurt, grated cucumber (*be sure to squeeze it out to remove any moisture), garlic, lemon juice, salt, cumin, black pepper, and mint leaves in a medium bowl. Stir to combine. Season to taste, adding more salt, lemon juice, or fresh mint as you like.
• Just Before Serving: Remove the sheet pan from the oven and deglaze the pan with ⅓ cup warm water, gently tossing the vegetables and scraping the bottom of the pan to pick up any caramelized bits. *Note: You can skip this step, but I like the added moisture it provides.
• Garnish with reserved lemon zest, torn mint leaves, and fresh cilantro. Serve with raita alongside coconut rice or toasted naan.

EASY ROASTED CAULIFLOWER

PAN-ROASTED CAULIFLOWER WITH GARLIC, PARSLEY AND ROSEMARY

Steps:

• Cut each cauliflower in quarters and remove the core. Cut quarters into 1/2-inch-thick slices. Chop down wider slices so all are approximately the same jagged size.
• Heat olive oil in a heavy wide skillet over medium-high heat. When oil is hot, add cauliflower and toss to coat using a metal spatula or flat wooden spoon. Season generously with salt and pepper.
• Keeping heat brisk, repeatedly turn the cauliflower, letting the slices brown as they cook. Adjust heat as necessary to keep them sizzling nicely but not scorching. Continue to stir and flip the cauliflower until it is tender when pierced with a fork, 10 to 12 minutes.
• Add crushed red pepper, garlic, rosemary, parsley and lemon zest. Stir well to coat and cook 1 minute more. Check seasoning, then transfer to a serving platter. Sprinkle with almonds and fresno chile, if using, and serve with lemon wedges.
