Ingredients
- 1 cup safflower or sunflower oil
- 1 tablespoon ground cumin
- 2 teaspoons turmeric
- 2 teaspoons crushed red pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon sea salt, plus more for seasoning
- 4 heads of cauliflower, halved, cored, and cut into 1-inch florets
- 1/4 cup pine nuts

Steps
- Preheat the oven to 425°F. In a small bowl, combine the oil, cumin, turmeric, crushed red pepper, and 1/2 teaspoon of salt.
- On two large rimmed baking sheets, drizzle the cauliflower with the spiced oil and toss well to coat; season with salt. Spread the cauliflower in an even layer and bake for about 1 hour, until browned and tender; switch the baking sheets halfway through cooking.
