  3. Place cauliflower on a baking sheet in a single layer and bake for 18 to 20 minutes. Serve cauliflower warm.

Comments
The recipe is actually "Spiced Caramelized Cauliflower and Candied Curry Pecan Salad", but the way the cauliflower is spiced makes a fantastic side to your meal on its own. Make sure to keep them in the oven until they look very brown in spots, I thought I burnt them the first time, but the darker ones were the best ones! This even won over non-cauliflower fans. Enjoy!
