Recipe

Roasted Florets

Roasting members of the brassica family brings out a hidden nutty sweetness that could change a few minds about these oft-maligned vegetables. Use either broccoli or cauliflower or a colorful mix.

Times

  • Prep Time : 5 min min
  • Ready Time : 5 min

Servings

Ingredients

  • 8 cups bite-size cauliflower florets or broccoli florets (about 1 head), sliced
  • 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt, or to taste
  • Freshly ground pepper to taste
  • Lemon wedges (optional)

Directions

Preparation

  1. Preheat oven to 450°F. Place florets in a large bowl with oil, salt and pepper and toss to coat. Spread out on a baking sheet. Roast the vegetables, stirring once, until tender-crisp and browned in spots, 15 to 25 minutes. Serve hot or warm with lemon wedges, if desired.

    Some of the recipe seems to be missing. How long do you bake at 450? When do you use the lemon?

  3. i actually just made something similiar (about 1/2 hour ago) i just used a little chili powder (be careful of the salt) soooo good!
