Baked Cauliflower

Let’s face it, cauliflower is rather dull on its own, although it does lend itself well to being enhanced with different flavours. Below is my baked cauliflower recipe that can be served on the side, or is rather tasty on its own as well.

What you’ll need:
1 head of cauliflower
1 lemon for the zest and juice
2 tsp coriander seeds
1/2 tsp dried chilly
a handful of sliced, blanched almonds

Preheat the oven to 200c.
Brake the cauliflower into its florets.
Boil salted water and place the cauliflower in the water for around 2 minutes. Drain, and leave to the side to dry as much as possible.
Crush the coriander seeds with the chilly.
In a shallow, oven-proof pot, heat some oil.
Place the crushed corriander and chilly in the pot, along with the almonds. Cook on a medium-heat until the almonds turn brown.
Add the cauliflower and cook for another two minutes, mixing well.
Grate the lemon zest and squeeze the lemon juice over the cauliflower, and mix well.
Cook for anohter minute or two, and transfer the pot to the oven for around 10 minutes.

Serve with a bit of butter
