Roasted Cauliflower

I love cauliflower… Raw. Cooked? Not so much. Until this.
Roasted cauliflower is the most delightful treat. A terrific substitute for french fries. The trick is to make sure it’s completely dry. Cut the florets, wash and then either just let them dry in the colander, or pat them dry with a clean towel. Make sure they are completely dry. I have tried to skip this step, but they’re just not as good, they don’t crisp up as nicely if there’s any water.
Once they’re dry, preheat your oven to 400. Put the cauliflower, a couple of tablespoons of EVOO, and a healthy couple of pinches of kosher or sea salt. Using your hands, toss to really combine and then spread out on a foil lined baking sheet in one layer.

Put them in the oven and every ten minutes pull them out, and toss them with a spatula or spoon. Cook until they’re done to your liking (mine was about 30 minutes, but I could have gone another ten.

Let them cool just a bit and then try not to eat them all.

    Thank you. I just threw out a whole head because the whole family thinks it is gross steamed. I will try it this way and I bet it will be a winner. MMMMMM.

    What a great idea! I love Cauliflower but the rest of the family…not so much. I just received my first shipment of flavored olive oil from my “adopted” olive tree in Italy. We got chili flavored, mandarin flavored and lemon flavored. I am going to make this with a little of the chili oil drizzled on them. The oil is ‘to die for’ nothing like I ever had before! I get my next shipment of EVOO in April…can’t wait!
