This roasted cauliflower is simple, bright, and built around letting the oven bring out natural flavor. As it roasts, the cauliflower becomes tender with crisp, caramelized edges. Garlic adds warmth and depth, while lemon lifts everything at the end with freshness. It’s a dish that feels light but satisfying, fitting easily into everyday meals. No extra steps, no fuss, just steady heat and clean flavors. Familiar, reliable, and quietly comforting.
