Whole Roasted Cauliflower with Green Herb Sauce image

A head of cauliflower becomes browned, nutty, and so tender it's scoopable when roasted whole. Serve it with a stirred-together fresh-herb sauce, fragrant with cilantro and parsley.

Time 1h15m

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 large head cauliflower
3/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper
1/2 cup packed chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
1/2 cup packed chopped fresh cilantro leaves and stems
1/2 teaspoon minced garlic
1 1/2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
2 tablespoons sherry vinegar

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Place cauliflower on a parchment-lined rimmed baking sheet. Brush with 1/4 cup oil; season with salt and pepper. Pull short sides of parchment over cauliflower and fold one end over other a few times to seal. Fold long ends of parchment under cauliflower to create a packet. Roast until knife-tender, about 40 minutes. Tear open parchment at top; roast until golden brown, 15 to 20 minutes more.
  • Stir together parsley, cilantro, garlic, mustard, vinegar, and remaining 1/2 cup oil in a small bowl to combine. Season with salt and pepper. Serve cauliflower warm, with sauce alongside.
