Roasted Cauliflower with Cheese

By Mrunal | Updated: 06/02/2019

This dish has some fantastic flavors and textures going into it. Cauliflower on its own is rather unimaginative. But roast it till all the edges turn brown and throw in some cheese, and you’ll have a totally different story. It is luscious enough to transform a finicky ‘i-don’t-like-vegetables-at-all’ eater into a cauliflower lover or addict. This nutty, buttery dish without the nuts and butter, is perfect when you want to push in some veggies in your kid’s diet.
