Step by step recipe

Stage 1

Preheat oven to 200°C (390°F).

Prepare 1 cauliflower, remove all leaves and cut off the stem.

Place on a sheet of baking paper on a baking sheet.

Stage 2

Melt 50 g semi-salted butter, then carefully brush butter all over the cauliflower.

If you don't have semi-salted butter, add salt to the cauliflower.
