Best Roasted Cauliflower With Onions And Fennel Recipes

ROASTED CAULIFLOWER WITH FENNEL AND ONION

Steps:

• Remove the cauliflower from the plastic wrap if any. (I usually spray all my vegetables with vinegar and then rinse with room temperature water.) Clean the cauliflower and pat dry.
• With the help of a knife, break the cauliflower into uniform bite-size. You want all the pieces to be almost the same size so they can cook evenly.
• Take the fennel, clean first, cut in half and then cut lengthwise into medium-sized pieces or slices.
• Slice the onion.
• If you're using a habanero pepper, remove the seeds and slice thinly.
• Add everything into a bowl and set aside
• Prepare the seasoning blend by mixing the olive oil with your preferred seasoning blend. (add salt and pepper if needed)
• Toss the vegetables with the olive oil and seasoning blend mixture.
• Place into a prepared baking dish and roast in the preheated oven at 425 F for 25 minutes and until golden brown.
• Serve hot or at room temperature.

• Roast, without disturbing, until cauliflower has turned a deep golden brown and crisped up in spots, 25 to 30 minutes. Using a spatula, flip the larger steaks and stir the smaller bits around and continue to roast until completely and evenly browned, another 8 to 10 minutes.
• Remove from heat and transfer to a large serving platter. Top with feta, herbs and a drizzle of olive oil.

• Tip the florets onto a baking tray and space them apart. Put the red onions, peppers and courgettes on a separate baking tray, drizzle with the remaining oil, and cook both for 30-35 mins, turning halfway through so they brown all over and turn slightly crisp in places.

• Pile the quinoa salad onto a plate, then top with the cauliflower florets. Drizzle over the garlic yogurt.
