What You’ll Need

  • 1 large head of cauliflower
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 4 cloves of garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon red pepper flakes
  • 1 lemon, juiced
  • 2 tablespoons grated Pecorino Romano cheese
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Step 1: Preparing the Cauliflower

Start by washing the cauliflower thoroughly under running water. Remove the green leaves and trim the stem, making sure to keep the head intact. Cut the cauliflower into small florets, about 1-2 inches in size.

Step 2: Blanching the Cauliflower

Fill a large pot with water and bring it to a boil. Add a generous amount of salt to the boiling water and carefully drop in the cauliflower florets. Let them cook for about 3-4 minutes, or until they are slightly tender.

Step 3: Preparing the Sauce

In a pan, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and red pepper flakes, and sauté until the garlic becomes golden brown and fragrant. Remove the pan from heat and set it aside.

Step 4: Roasting the Cauliflower

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Drain the blanched cauliflower and pat it dry with a paper towel. Place the cauliflower florets on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Drizzle the prepared sauce over the cauliflower and toss them well to evenly coat.

Roast the cauliflower in the preheated oven for about 20-25 minutes, or until they turn golden brown and crispy around the edges. Make sure to flip them once halfway through the cooking time for even browning.

Step 5: Adding the Final Touches

Once the cauliflower is nicely roasted, remove it from the oven and transfer it to a serving dish. Squeeze fresh lemon juice all over the cauliflower and sprinkle grated Pecorino Romano cheese on top. Add salt and pepper to taste, and give it a gentle toss to combine all the flavors.

Your Roman-style cauliflower is now ready to be served! It’s a great side dish or a healthy snack on its own. Enjoy the wonderful blend of flavors and textures in this simple but delicious recipe.
