Ingredients
- 1 head cauliflower
- 1 clove garlic
- coarse salt
- pepper
- extra virgin olive oil
- 1/2 cup Parmesan
Instructions
- Wash the cauliflower with cold water. Cut it into bite-sized pieces.
- Finely chop the garlic cloves.
- Arrange the cauliflower pieces on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Add your minced garlic at this point, evenly distributing it among the cauliflower then drizzle the cauliflower with the olive oil, sprinkle with coarse salt, and add a dash of black pepper.
- Place the cauliflower in a preheated oven (at 400°F). Bake for 25-30 minutes, stirring occasionally with a wooden spoon for even cooking.
- Remove the cauliflower from the oven. Sprinkle with grated Parmesan to taste. Replace it in the oven and bake for 3 minutes, until a light gratin forms.
Notes
- Instead of finely chopping the garlic, you can thinly slice it. Sliced garlic is less pungent than chopped.
- Don't walk away after applying the Parmesan. The cheese can burn easily so keep an eye on the cauliflower and remove it once the cheese starts to brown.
- Try to cut your cauliflower all the same size for the sake of even cooking.
