Ingredients
- 2 heads cauliflower, cut into even bite-size pieces
- 1 garlic bulb, split into cloves, unpeeled
- 6 bay leaves, stalks removed, finely chopped
- 4 tbsp olive oil
- zest and juice 1 lemon
Tip
TwistIf you don’t fancy garlic, roast the cauliflower with a little chopped red chilli or a sprinkle of smoked paprika or cumin seeds. Another idea is to serve it topped with shaved Parmesan.
Method
Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Place the cauliflower, garlic and bay leaves in a large bowl, toss with the oil, zest and juice and season generously. Spread evenly onto a baking sheet (use 2 if you need to). Roast for 20 mins, turning halfway, until al dente and caramelised.
