The key to developing crispy browned surfaces on roasted cauliflower is baking in a superhot oven on the lowest rack so the baking sheet is close to the heat radiating off the bottom of the oven.

Ingredients
Preparation
Step 1
Place oven rack in lowest position and preheat to 450°F. Toss cauliflower and oil on a large rimmed baking sheet; season with salt and pepper. Arrange cauliflower so a flat side is facing down and roast until dark brown and crisp on bottom, 15–20 minutes. Remove from oven and turn pieces over. Roast until second side is dark brown and crisp, 10–15 minutes. Let cool slightly.
Step 2
Transfer warm cauliflower to a platter. If using, spoon relish over top and season with more salt and pepper.

Back to TopI was bringing this as a vegetarian potluck dish, and added a can of garbanzos I had sauteed apart with onions and a dollop of chili sauce. Later I added it to the cauliflower cooked as in teh recipe. It was great. The relish is wonderful. I expected it to be strange without cooking the mustard seeds or garlic but it worked.
