Curried Cauliflower popcorn got its name when I was out of popcorn kernels ( remarkable since I stock up on them) and had a big ole' piece of cauliflower left over from the farmers market. I usually put some sort of seasoning with my popcorn, Such as curry/ turmeric/ sea salt and pop with coconut oil. Alas, I had none for my craving of easy to eat movie food. So, I chopped up the cauliflower into nice bite size pieces, drizzled some olive oil and sea salt on them and 20 minutes later, BAM nice and crispy cauliflower 'popcorn'. Sprinkled Curry on afterwards to preserve the herbs and spices.
Ingredients:
1- Head of Cauliflower
1- 1/4 cup olive oil
1- Tbsp of Seasoning
2- Pinches salt & pepper to taste
1. Preheat oven to 450F
2. Rinse, dry and cut cauliflower into small bite size pieces
3. place on cookie sheet.
4. Drizzle olive oil on top and spread evenly.
5. Sprinkle salt/ pepper.
6. Bake for 20 minutes, or until golden. ( Check every 5-8 minutes or so)
7. Take out of oven, While hot sprinkle seasoning, such as curry powder, turmeric and paprika or keep to the basics of the salt and pepper!
8. Enjoy, thoroughly.
Note: Should be crispy/golden brown. Trick is to make sure the cauliflower is dried before going into the oven! Ps.You can use Broccoli as well, just bake for 15 minutes instead! :)
And hey, you're eating a vegetable, so enjoy irresponsibly!
