Ingredients
×10- 1 large headcauliflower — cut into bite-size florets — organic if you can
- 2 tbspolive oil — extra-virgin
- 1.5 tspground cumin
- 1 tspground coriander
- 1 tspsmoked paprika
- 1/2 tspground turmeric
- 1/4 tspground cinnamon
- 1 tspfine sea salt
- 1lemon — half for the rub, half to finish
- 2 tbspfresh parsley — chopped, to finish
Method
- 01
Cut the cauliflower into even, bite-size florets — uniform pieces cook at the same rate and crisp together. Dry them well; a wet floret steams instead of roasting.
- 02
In a big bowl, whisk the oil with the cumin, coriander, paprika, turmeric, cinnamon, salt, and a squeeze of lemon. Add the florets and toss until every piece is rust-red and slick.
- 03
Air fry at 380°F for 18 minutes, shaking the basket twice, until the edges are charred-dark and the florets are tender to a knife but still have bite.
- 04
Tip onto a platter, hit with the remaining lemon and the parsley, and serve warm — in wraps, over rice, or straight off the plate.
