Anti-Inflammatory Turmeric Cauliflower Snack (or Side!)

January 18, 2023
Jump to Recipe

 

A super easy, flavoursome and hearty treat! This cauliflower snack is great guilt-free idea for morning tea, or when it's not quite time for dinner but you're feeling peckish.

You can cook a whole cauliflower amount, and then reheat little portions as you need! And if you have an air-fryer that's a bonus, you can reheat them in there and enjoy them nice and crispy.

The best part about this though, is the amount of nutritional benefits cauliflower has!

Cauliflower contains fiber, Vitamin C, Vitamin B6, Vitamin K, Choline, Folate, Magnesium, Potassium, and Anti-Oxidants!

It is also low-calorie and low carb. So it's a big winner in my books!

Whether you enjoy it for snacks for the week, or as a side for your dinner, it's a healthy and delicious delight :)

 



 

Dietary Requirements:

Cauliflower is high in mannitol and therefore is not Low FODMAP! However Monash states it is okay for all other irritants.

It is naturally suitable for those with a lactose intolerance, and who are gluten free.
It belongs to the Brassicaceae family, and therefore is nightshade free.
And those following a pescatarian, vegetarian and vegan diet can enjoy this healthy snack.

It is also worth noting that if you have a thyroid condition, you may want to monitor your consumption of cauliflower, as it can affect your body's absorption of iodine. However, you would need to eat way above a normal amount for it to be an issue. If you have any concerns, speak to your medical professional.



Anti-Inflammatory Turmeric Cauliflower Snack (or Side!)

Prep Time: 2 mins

Cooking Time: 15 mins

Serves: 4

Easy to make, easy to reheat! Enjoy this snack all week with just one cauliflower! Suitable for oven roast or air fry.

Ingredients

  • A large cauliflower
  • 3 tbsp of olive oil, (garlic infused if you can!)
  • 1 tbsp of ground turmeric
  • ½ tsp of paprika
  • ¼ tsp of cumin
  • salt and pepper

Method

Step 1:
For oven roast: Preheat oven to 200°C.

Cut the cauliflower into florets and place them in a large mixing bowl.

Step 2:
In the large bowl, combine the olive oil, turmeric, paprika, cumin, and a generous pinch of salt and pepper. Mix until the cauliflower is coated.

Step 3:
For oven roast: Spread the cauliflower across a baking tray lined with baking paper. Roast, turning occasionally, for 15-20 minutes or until they are to your desired texture (test by piercing with a fork).

For air fryer: air fry over baking paper, flipping occasionally for about 15 minutes at 200°C. Check regularly to ensure they don’t burn!

Serve on it’s own, or with a meal, and can also be enjoyed with a minty greek yogurt drizzle, mango chutney, or a sauce of your liking 🙂
