CURRY + SRIRACHA ROASTED CAULIFLOWER

Curry + Sriracha Roasted Cauliflower – Full of flavor and spice, curry and sriracha take this roasted cauliflower to another level! Serve as a mono meal or side dish.

There was a time I didn’t care for cauliflower, but times have changed. Cauliflower is awesome, and this flavorful Curry + Sriracha Roasted Cauliflower is the best!

I especially love my cauliflower roasted. I had a head of cauliflower in my fridge that I was going to do another recipe with but decided to simply coat it with curry and sriracha, and roast it up to greatness.

It was fantastic on all accounts – taste, texture and color. I thought maybe it was going to be too spicy but it was perfect.

I actually sat and ate the whole thing to myself enjoying this as a mono meal. You can of course use this as a side dish along with some rice or quinoa too.

I absolutely enjoy this dish and make it often. Sriracha makes everything better – well almost. Get your sriracha on!

Ingredients You’ll Need

In this recipe, cauliflower is tossed with warming and spicy flavors and roasted until tender and lightly caramelized for a flavorful side dish.

Here is everything you will need:

• Cauliflower
• Curry powder
• Sriracha – I love and use Huy Fong with the unmistakable green top
• Sesame oil – or use your favorite
• Mineral salt

How To Make Curry Sriracha Roasted Cauliflower

• Simply cut the cauliflower into florets and place in a large bowl. Add the oil, curry, sriracha and salt.

• Toss, mixing for a minute or so to coat well.
• Place coated cauliflower in a single layer on a roasting pan.
• Place on center rack of a preheated oven set at 425 degrees for 45 minutes, stirring every 15 minutes.

There you have it, a wonderfully flavored side that can also be served as a meal!

How To Store Leftovers

• Refrigerator: Leftovers will keep for 5 – 6 days in the refrigerator, stored in a covered container.
• Freezer: Roasted cauliflower is freezer friendly and can be stored in the freezer for up to 2 –  3 months using freezer safe containers or baggies.
• Reheat: Warm on the stovetop over low heat until warmed through, you may need to add a little water so it doesn’t stick to the pan. Alternatively, reheat in the microwave using 30 – 60 second intervals, stirring after each, until warm.

Serving Suggestions

This spicy side dish can also be served with something on the side for a hearty meal. Here are a few of my favorite options:

• Grain: Serve with farro, basmati, jasmine or brown rice, even quinoa would be excellent.
• Veggies: Serve with Savory Sauteed Kale.
• Bread: Pair with a piece of homemade Vegan Naan.
• Wrap: Turn this into a wrap with Naan, a handful of leafy greens and this Classic Hummus, Simple White Bean Hummus or Vegan Aioli as spread.
• Soup: Serve with Tomato Basil Soup or Cauliflower Soup.
• Salad: Serve with this Green Salad + Chickpeas & Lemon Tahini Dressing.
