Roasted Cauliflower

A recipe from Georgia Department of Education School Nutrition

Enjoy the simple yet delightful taste that results from the caramelization of cauliflower when roasting the florets.

Roasted Cauliflower.

Ingredients:

  • 8 lbs + 12 oz Cauliflower, raw, florets
  • 4 fl. oz Oil, canola
  • 1 tbsp Pepper, black, ground
  • 1 tbsp Salt, kosher

Steps:

  1. Toss cauliflower florets in oil and place evenly on a sheet pan sprayed with pan spray. Sprinkle with salt and pepper.
  2. Take care not to overcrowd pans. This will cause the cauliflower to steam rather than roast.

  3. Place cauliflower in 400°F oven. Roast until caramelized, brown, and crispy- approximately 16-18 minutes.
  4. Place roasted cauliflower in 2 inches, solid, half hotel pans for service.
  5. Hot hold, uncovered, for service.
  6. Hold at 135°F or above.

  7. For service, use a 1/2 cup (6 oz) Spoodle or a #8 disher to portion 1/2 cup servings.
