For a Serving Size of Two:

Ingredients:

200 grams cauliflower florets
1 teaspoon olive oil
1 teaspoon ginger-garlic paste
1/2 teaspoon turmeric powder
1/2 teaspoon red chili powder
1/2 teaspoon garam masala
1/2 teaspoon cumin powder
1/4 teaspoon coriander powder
1/4 teaspoon paprika
Salt to taste
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 tablespoon rice flour

Procedure:

Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F).
Wash and cut the cauliflower into bite-sized florets. In a large bowl, combine ginger-garlic paste, turmeric powder, red chili powder, garam masala, cumin powder, coriander powder, paprika, salt, and lemon juice. Mix well.
Add the cauliflower florets to the bowl and toss well to coat them evenly with the spice mixture.
Sprinkle rice flour over the cauliflower and mix again to ensure an even coating.
Spread the coated cauliflower florets on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or a non-stick baking mat. Drizzle or brush with olive oil.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the cauliflower is tender and crispy, turning once halfway through for even cooking.
Allow the cauliflower to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy as a crunchy, healthy snack or side dish.

Nutritional Benefits:

This recipe highlights cauliflower’s health benefits, including its high fiber content and essential vitamins like C and K. The use of olive oil adds healthy fats, while spices such as turmeric and cumin offer anti-inflammatory properties. Lemon juice provides an extra dose of vitamin C, and rice flour helps achieve a crispy texture without deep-frying. Baking rather than frying keeps the dish lower in calories and healthier overall.
