Step 1: Prepare the Cauliflower
Wash the cauliflower and cut it into small florets.
Try to keep the pieces similar in size so they cook evenly.
Step 2: Season the Cauliflower
Place the florets in a large bowl.
Add:
- Olive oil or melted butter
- Garlic
- Salt
- Black pepper
- Paprika
- Oregano
Mix everything well so the cauliflower is fully coated with seasoning.
Step 3: Arrange on Baking Tray
Preheat the oven to 200°C (400°F).
Spread the cauliflower on a baking sheet in a single layer.
Do not overcrowd the pan so the florets can roast properly.
Step 4: Roast the Cauliflower
Bake for 25–30 minutes until the cauliflower becomes golden brown and crispy on the edges.
Halfway through cooking, gently stir the florets so they roast evenly.
Step 5: Add Final Touch
Remove from the oven and sprinkle with Parmesan cheese and fresh parsley.
Serve warm.
