Whole Roasted Cauliflower

Tomato Vinaigrette

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Cauliflower

    Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Remove the leaves from the cauliflower and trim the stem, ensuring the cauliflower stays whole.

  2. 2

    Season the Cauliflower

    In a small bowl, mix together olive oil, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika. Brush the mixture all over the cauliflower, making sure to coat it evenly.

  3. 3

    Roast the Cauliflower

    Place the cauliflower on a baking sheet and roast in the preheated oven for about 45-50 minutes, or until the outer layers are golden brown and the inside is tender.

Tomato Vinaigrette

  1. 4

    Prepare the Vinaigrette

    While the cauliflower is roasting, prepare the tomato vinaigrette. In a bowl, combine cherry tomatoes, capers, red wine vinegar, olive oil, salt, black pepper, and fresh basil. Mix well and let it sit to allow the flavors to meld.

Serving

  1. 5

    Serve the Dish

    Once the cauliflower is done roasting, remove it from the oven and let it cool slightly. Cut into wedges and drizzle with the tomato vinaigrette before serving.
