3 tablespoons olive oil

4 cloves garlic, finely chopped

100 grams grated Parmesan cheese

50 grams plain breadcrumbs
06 -
2 tablespoons fresh parsley, finely chopped

Salt, to taste

Black pepper, to taste
# Steps to Follow:
01 -
Wash and dry the cauliflower thoroughly, then cut into uniform florets for even roasting.
02 -
In a large bowl, toss cauliflower with olive oil, chopped garlic, salt, and pepper until evenly coated. Let marinate for 10 minutes.

Arrange marinated florets on a parchment-lined baking tray in a single layer. Generously sprinkle the Parmesan-breadcrumb mixture over each piece.

# Extra Tips:
01 -
Use fresh cauliflower with tight, white florets and bright green leaves for best results.

For extra crispiness, extend the marination time to 30 minutes and turn florets midway during baking.
03 -
You may substitute Parmesan with nutritional yeast or vegan cheese for a plant-based version.
