Ingredients

  • 1 medium Cauliflower leaves removed and the core at the bottom cut straight across - so it stands in the baking tray
  • 2 Tablespoons Olive Oil
  • Salt & Black Pepper
  • 1 Tablespoon Butter
  • 25 g Parmesan finely grated
  • Black Pepper
  • Handful of chopped Parsley

Instructions

  • Pre-Heat your oven 200C / 400F / Gas 6
  • Find yourself a nice deep baking tray
  • Pop your trimmed Cauliflower in the bottom, drizzle over the 2 tablespoons olive oil, then using your hands, rub the oil all over the cauliflower, season well with Salt & Pepper
  • Cover the tin with foil - sealing really well and pop your tray on the middle shelf of the oven and bake for 45 minutes (maybe a little longer if you have a large cauliflower)
  • Remove from the oven, (check its tender by sliding a knife in)  dab the butter all over the top of the Cauliflower, followed by the grated Parmesan and season well
  • Return to the oven without the foil for 15 minutes until the cauliflower is nice and golden
  • Remove from the oven, sprinkle with chopped Parsley and dig in!!
