Roasted Cauliflower
Easy oven-baked cauliflower with garlic and Parmesan cheese. This recipe is so easy with only 10 minutes active time. A perfect side dish all year round!
Little G eats very few vegetables, one of them is cauliflower, and only oven-baked cauliflower.
This Garlic Parmesan Roasted Cauliflower is what I always make for him, to go with salmon, pasta, or chicken. He doesn’t fuss as they are so delicious!
This recipe is one of the easiest and most delicious ways to prepare cauliflower. Oven-roasting makes the cauliflower soft and tender, and the garlic and Parmesan cheese add aroma and mouthwatering flavors to the cauliflower.
The best thing is prep time takes only 10 minutes and the oven will do the rest. Just cut up the cauliflower into florets or buy them pre-cut. Mix the florets with butter, minced garlic and Parmesan cheese and you’re done!

Thanks!
Very good recipe. I added a couple broccoli just to see how they would turn out. Mistake. They need less time to cook, so keep your cauliflower solo. I also added more cheese based on others’ comments. I will make again.
Hi Janaan, yes broccoli takes less time to bake. More cheese is always better. Thanks for trying my recipe, please check out more recipes on my site: https://rasamalaysia.com/recipe-index-gallery/

I’m baking it right now. I used garlic based olive oil, kosher salt, blk pepper and sprinkled Parmesan grated cheese over the tossed cauliflowe. Baking at 400° for 20″ going to turn on other side and bake for another 20″.
Looking good.and tastes real good.so far. Need to add more parmesan cheese when turning and finish cooking. Yummy.
Look so delecious! I bet this recipe is simple but will not make me disappointed.
I feel like in past generations cauliflower was a forgotten vegetable unless paired with broccoli, in which case broccoli was the star. I love that we are feeding it to our children now, knowing it is just as healthy as it is delicious!
Cauliflower is anytime better than broccoli, it has a nice sweetness and broccoli has no taste! Glad that you love cauliflower!
