Ingredients
  • 1 head of cauliflower
  • extra virgin olive oil
  • salt & pepper
  • pinch smoked paprika, optional but very tasty!
Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 220C/425F/gas 7. Strip the leaves off the cauliflower and slice. Break the cauliflower into small florets and slice any leftover stalk thinly. Place everything on a baking tray and toss with a few tablespoons extra virgin olive oil. Season with salt & pepper and sprinkle over a pinch of smoked paprika. Roast in the preheated oven for 25-30 mins, until everything is soft and golden. Serve hot or cold as a side, snack or a great little lunchbox addition.
