Gouda Roasted Purple Cauliflower

Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Gouda Roasted Purple Cauliflower.

1. Step 1

   To start, grab a covered container and toss in your cauliflower florets along with the bright zest and juice of a fresh lemon.

2. Step 2

   Drizzle just enough olive oil to give those florets a lovely, light coating.

3. Step 3

   Next, add in the minced garlic, a sprinkle of salt, and a dash of cracked black pepper for that perfect flavor kick.

4. Step 4

   Secure the lid on the container and give it a good shake to blend everything together.

5. Step 5

   Now, let the cauliflower marinate at room temperature for anywhere between one to five hours.

6. Step 6

   This is the magic moment when the flavors really soak in! When you're ready to cook, preheat your oven to a cozy 400°F (200°C).

   Once the oven is nice and hot, transfer your marinated cauliflower into a baking dish, spreading it out evenly to ensure every piece gets that delicious roast.

8. Step 8

   Pop it in the oven and let it bake uncovered for about 30 minutes, or until the florets turn a beautiful dark purple and start to brown.

9. Step 9

   Just when you think it can't get any better, sprinkle some grated Gouda cheese over the top and return it to the oven for another five minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
