This was so yummy; I did this in my toaster oven. I found that I had to apply the rub with my fingers- it wasn’t runny, more clumpy/sticky so impossible to sprinkle. In fact, I took the florets and rubbed them into the paste in the bowl. Will make this again and will use this rub on other foods. Added some of it to the salmon I was roasting. Delicious

Great recipe! This is now one of my favorite ways to make cauliflower. My family enjoyed the caramelization of the brown sugar. I will definitely make this again. Thanks for sharing!

I’m 70 years old next week, and this was the first time I bought and cooked cauliflower. This was such a great recipe! So easy!
Brianna Bailey
This was amazing. I’m making it again a few days later. The only thing I did the 2nd time was to decrease the salt a little. Love love love it!!!

Made as written and liked. I’m not generally a fan of sweetened vegetables…and actually, roasting veggies does bring out a sweetness anyway, but this was very good. It’s really not that much sugar to add, after all…and can be adjusted down in the prep stage of things.
Sharon Gregory
Just like it says – easy. Delicious
William Richardson

Easily my favorite way to eat cauliflower besides raw covered in hummus. I could serve this to guests and feel confident.

Loved loved loved this cauliflower preparation. I roasted 2 heards if cauliflowers and I barely had enough leftovers for lunch cause my family just gobbled it all up

Fantastic! I don’t normally add sugar to my food, but decided to go with it. This is SO good! I cut my florets a little smaller, so I ended only roasting for 20 mins + an additional 10. The sugar/curry mixture add so much flavor and caramelizes nicely to give a nice crunch on some pieces, so the more your roast it, the better! I used a sheet of parchment paper to make cleanup easier. This one’s a keeper!
Victoria Blackwell
I doubled the seasoning since I used two small cauliflower heads and it came out delicious. Only change I would make in the future is to reduce the salt a bit.
Ashley Harris
This was excellent – the spice mixture works perfectly.
