RecipePrep10 minsCook30 minsServes4DifficultyEasy

Ingredients

  • 1.5 tsp Sun & Spice Fire Chili Powder
  • 1 tsp Sun & Spice Golden Turmeric
  • 1 large cauliflower, cut into florets
  • 3 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp smoked paprika
  • 3 cloves garlic, crushed
  • 1 tsp salt
  • Juice of half a lemon
  • 2 tbsp tahini, for drizzling

Method

  1. Preheat your oven to 220°C (425°F) and line a large baking tray with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, toss the cauliflower florets with olive oil, crushed garlic, Fire Chili Powder, Golden Turmeric, smoked paprika, and salt until evenly coated.
  3. Spread the cauliflower in a single layer on the baking tray. Avoid overcrowding as this prevents crisping.
  4. Roast for 25-30 minutes, turning halfway, until the edges are deeply golden and caramelised.
  5. Remove from the oven, squeeze the lemon juice over the top, and drizzle with tahini.

  • Cut the florets into similar sizes so they roast evenly. Smaller pieces will crisp up more.
  • The turmeric adds a beautiful golden colour while the chili provides a slow-building heat.
  • Leftovers can be tossed into salads, grain bowls, or wraps the next day.
