Somehow, I always felt a bit hesitant in trying this dish
out. I had this unusual crazy fear in me that it might taste bland as all the
spices would stick on the outside only. But to my surprise, this was
definitely not the case. This oven roasted cauliflower did turn out both tasty
and flavorful.
If you have never tried baking whole cauliflower you should
definitely try this recipe. This whole cauliflower roast looks so exotic
on the dinner table. It will be a perfect meatless alternative to whole roast chicken or whole turkey roast in a
Thanksgiving menu. Trust me, your vegan/vegetarian guests will love this so
much!

- 1 tbsp olive oil
