2. Prepare the cauliflower:
- Rinse the cauliflower under cold water and pat it dry with a clean kitchen towel.
- Remove the leaves and cut the cauliflower in half. Save one half for another recipe.
- Cut the remaining half into bite-sized florets.
- Place the 2 tablespoons of hummus in a small serving bowl. If desired, you can garnish with a sprinkle of paprika, a drizzle of olive oil, or some chopped fresh parsley for added flavor and presentation.
- Once the cauliflower bites are done roasting, let them cool slightly.
- Arrange the roasted cauliflower bites over the hummus dip.
Tips:
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) before you start preparing the cauliflower. This ensures that the oven is ready to roast the cauliflower to perfection.
- For even roasting, cut the cauliflower into similar-sized florets. This allows them to cook evenly and achieve a consistent texture.
- Toss the cauliflower florets with olive oil, salt, and pepper before roasting. This enhances the flavor and helps them become golden and crispy.
- Roast the cauliflower for about 25-30 minutes, flipping halfway through to ensure all sides are evenly cooked.
- Serve the roasted cauliflower bites immediately with a side of hummus for dipping. You can also sprinkle fresh parsley or a squeeze of lemon juice over the cauliflower for extra flavor.
- Feel free to experiment with different seasonings such as garlic powder, smoked paprika, or nutritional yeast to add a unique twist to your cauliflower bites.
