Fight Cancer with Whole Roasted Cauliflower
Not only is this unique recipe a great comfort food, the combination of cauliflower and curry fights cancer, according to recent research.

Will fix the typos now, I hope.I clicked on to get your newsletter & a free report. The thingy to show it is sending went round & round & round, etc until I just lefT THe page. Further on I saw where I could get 2 or 3 free reporTs if I signed up. Same story, round & round it goes, but if it sent no one knows.
Then I saw where I could write to you and that is what I’m doing now. Sure hope this really sends now. LOLReply

Thanks for this cauliflower recipe. I just made it and it is a great way to fix cauliflower. Regarding the length of roasting, the summary shows an oven time of 60 min but the instructions proper show 40 min., which is what I followed. It was still a bit firm after 40 min but we ate it anyway. So, is 60 min the intended goal for roasting? If so, maybe the instructions can be altered to reflect the longer time. We liked the seasoning even with the strong turmeric flavor.

An excellent recipe; we will be making it again. However 2Tbsp of chilli powder seems excessive; we cut it to 1/4 tsp.

The ingredient list does not mention lime zest. How much lime zest should be used…?

Thanks, Glenn! Good eye. It should be 1 tsp. and the recipe is updated.
Be Well,

Are you sure that the recipe is not confusing tablespoon with teaspoon?
It seems seems to me that two tablespoons of chilli powder is quite a lot?
