Roasted cauliflower. Yep, I’m becoming ultra-hip. So here it is, I finally found a way to make cauliflower taste great. A year ago with all the cauliflower hype I would never have believed it. But it’s true. Cauliflower, as unloved as it has been in my eyes, can truly taste great. I gave it a try last winter and wasn’t totally convinced, so a full spring, summer, and fall later, I decided to give it a second chance. Truly love it!<\/p>\n

I think it is only because I have been eating at a falafel place that serves their “Mesa Platte” with roasted cauliflower. Okay, that’s a fib, it’s actually deep-fried and tastes amazing. Which sparked me to give what is my probably least favorite vegetable a second chance. You see, I grew up in a family with English heritage (plus some Icelandic, French, Scottish in the mix… long story) AND<\/em> the English having some influence on my mother’s cooking skills (I’m talking two generations ago, so in those days there wasn’t any Jamie Oliver and Yotam Ottolenghi<\/a> taking London by storm) that meant Sunday dinners with rare roast beef, which my mother then let “rest” on a plate to drain only so she could dip her bread in all the blood — as a child I was traumatized. And to top things off there were overcooked vegetables, yes I know, it’s so clich\u00e9. “British Cuisine”… an oxymoron. Nonetheless, it meant that also in the midst of cauliflower season, it too suffered, from a very long boil.<\/p>\n

\"Roasted
\nSo since life is life and we don’t necessarily have to repeat our parents and grandparents “mistakes”, sometimes it is great to simply break the mold and find new ways of turning past experiences into something fantastic. And that’s exactly what I did with this roasted cumin cauliflower.<\/p>\n

\nNeedless to say, I think this simple and healthy recipe for roasted cumin cauliflower and millet salad is truly fantastic. And beyond deliciously delicious. Millet is a perfect flavor partner with roasted cumin cauliflower (and doubles up as being gluten-free), as is fresh parsley, peppery baby arugula, chili and most definitely and not to be forgotten… lemon. I think a little spice is essential to this recipe and prefer freshly ground dried bird’s-eye chili over chili flakes, but both are good. Personally, I can’t live without my grinder full with chili peppers<\/a> and it’s something I would recommend it to anyone who loves a little spice in their life. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n
