- 1 head of cauliflower (about 600g)
- 1 tsp onion granules
- 1 tsp garlic granules
- 1/2 tsp smoked paprika

Preparation
Preheat the oven to 200C/180C fan/400F/gas mark 6 and line a high sided baking tray with nonstick baking parchment
Slice the cauliflower lengthways into thick slices using a large knife, then place them onto the baking tray
Drizzle the cauliflower steaks with a little olive oil until all sides are saturated
Add all the dry seasonings including salt and pepper into a small bowl, then mix well until fully combined
Sprinkle the seasoning all over the cauliflower steaks on all sides until evenly coated
Cover the baking tray with tin foil and bake in the oven for 6 minutes, then remove the foil and sprinkle with seeds if using
Place back into the oven for a further 10-15 minutes, turning them over halfway through cooking time so both sides are crisp
Garnish with the chopped parsley
