Footnotes

  • Cook's Note:
  • After 15 minutes, the cauliflower will still have some crunch; cook for an additional 5 minutes if you want it crispier. The timing really depends on the size of the cauliflower, so check frequently.

So delicious! I did add five minutes to the time, as suggested in the Cook’s Note. Maybe I’ll use a bit less salt next time, but we gobbled this up in no time!

Great way to change up cauliflower. Only change I made was using coconut oil because that's what I had on hand. Absolutely delicious!
