For the Cauliflower
  • 1 head Cauliflower Feel free to substitute with broccoli for a different taste.
  • 2 tablespoons Olive Oil Opt for high-quality extra virgin for the best results.
For the Sauce
  • 1/4 cup Honey For a vegan option, substitute with maple syrup.
  • 1/4 cup Soy Sauce Choose tamari for a gluten-free version.
  • 2 tablespoons Rice Vinegar Apple cider vinegar works as an alternative.
  • 1 tablespoon Sesame Oil Introduces nutty undertones to the dish.
  • 3 cloves Garlic Minced; garlic powder can be used instead.
  • 1 tablespoon Fresh Ginger Grated for optimal flavor; ground ginger can suffice.
  • 1/2 teaspoon Red Pepper Flakes Optional for a kick.

  • Mixing bowl
  • medium saucepan
  • Parchment Paper

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper. Cut the cauliflower into bite-sized florets.
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine cauliflower florets with olive oil, tossing lightly to coat. Spread in a single layer on the baking sheet and roast for 20-25 minutes, flipping halfway, until tender and golden.
  3. In a saucepan, combine honey, soy sauce, rice vinegar, sesame oil, minced garlic, and grated ginger. Heat over medium for 3-5 minutes until thickened.
  4. Transfer roasted cauliflower to a mixing bowl. Pour the hot sauce over and toss gently until evenly coated.
  5. Serve immediately on a dish, optionally garnishing with sliced green onions or sesame seeds. Enjoy!
