Roasted Cauliflower

I made roasted cauliflower for dinner last night and oh, was it delicious! I got the idea from Gwyneth's cookbook, My Father's Daughter, which I highly recommend. I added lemon and a little garlic of my own.

Roasted Cauliflower

1 head cauliflower, hard care discarded, cut into small florets

2 garlic cloves, finely chopped

extra virgin olive oil, enough for a light drizzle over each floret, about 2-3 tablespoons

pinch coarse salt

pinch freshly ground black pepper

1/2 lemon

Preheat oven to 450 degrees. In a baking dish large enough to hold the cauliflower in one layer, toss all the ingredients together except for the lemon. Roast for 35 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the cauliflower is caramelized all over. Before serving, squeeze the juice of the lemon over the top. Add extra salt and pepper as needed. Bon appetit!
