Ingredients
  

  • 1 Medium head cauliflower
  • 1 1/2 tsp cumin
  • 1 tsp cayenne
  • 1 1/2 tsp Spanish smoked paprika
  • 1 1/4 teaspoons sea salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 4 tablespoons olive oil

  • 1 OXO Magnetic Measuring Cups

Method
 

  1. Preheat the oven to 375℉ or 190℃
  2. Remove the leaves from the cauliflower. Slice off the bottom part of the stem so that the cauliflower can stand upright in a large pot with a lid, or Dutch oven.
  3. Mix spices. Whisk in olive oil to form a paste. Rub the paste all over the cauliflower. Drizzle lemon juice all over.
    PRO TIP: Wear food prep gloves if you have some
  4. Bake the cauliflower for about 45 min. to an hour, or until a knife inserted in the center comes out easily.
