Ingredients
- 1 medium cauliflower
- 1 head of garlic
- 3/4 tsp sea salt or Himalayan salt
- 3/4 tsp turmeric powder
- 1/4 tsp ground black pepper
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
- 3 tbsp healthy cooking fat (such as butter, ghee, coconut oil, lard, and tallow)
- 2 tbsp fresh parsley (optional)
Instructions
- Peel 1 head of garlic. Roughly chop the garlic or crush the cloves. Allow the garlic time in room temperature for 10-15 minutes, while executing step 2 and 3. This will enhance the health benefits of garlic. See the blog post above for more details.
- Meanwhile, separate the whole cauliflower into equal-sized florets. Discard the stalk.
- Spread the cauliflower florets and garlic on a large baking sheet. Be careful not to crowd and stack the cauliflower. Season the cauliflower and garlic with salt, turmeric, black pepper, garlic powder, then drizzle or dot with a healthy cooking fat of your choice. I prefer organic butter, but you can use ghee, coconut oil, avocado oil, fat rendered from beef or pork, that are stable in cooking.
- Roast the cauliflower in a pre-heated oven at 375ºF for 40 minutes.
- It's optional to garnish the roasted cauliflower with fresh chopped parsley or herbs of your choice.
