Step 4: Arrange on a Baking Sheet

Spread the florets in a single layer on a parchment-lined baking sheet.

👉 Do not overcrowd the tray.
If the pieces touch, they will steam instead of crisp.

Step 5: Roast at High Heat

Bake in a preheated 220°C (425°F) oven for 25–30 minutes.

At the halfway point, flip the florets so they brown on all sides.

You’re looking for deep golden edges and light charring.

Step 6: Add Finishing Touches

Once out of the oven, enhance the flavors with:

• a squeeze of fresh lemon
• a sprinkle of parsley
• extra seasoning if needed

This extra brightness makes the cauliflower taste even better.

🍴 Serving Suggestions

Crispy roasted cauliflower pairs well with:

• roasted chicken or grilled meats
• pasta dishes
• rice bowls
• salads
• creamy dips like hummus, tahini, or ranch

It also makes a fantastic snack on its own!

🌈 Tips to Make It Even Crispier

• Use high heat (not below 425°F/220°C).
• Ensure the cauliflower is bone-dry before seasoning.
• Use enough oil—too little prevents browning.
• Spread the florets out with space between them.
• Roast on the bottom rack for extra browning.
