Cauliflower with Mustard-Lemon Butter

This roasted cauliflower with mustard-lemon butter is a sophisticated yet simple vegetarian side dish that perfectly balances earthy and zesty flavours. By slicing the cauliflower into thin steaks, you create more surface area for the butter to caramelise, ensuring every bite is infused with tangy citrus and the subtle heat of whole grain mustard.

Ideal for a Sunday roast or as a light accompaniment to grilled proteins, this versatile recipe works equally well served hot or at room temperature. The addition of fresh parsley adds a vibrant finish to the dish, making it a colourful and nutritious addition to any dinner table. It is also a practical choice for entertaining, as it can be prepared slightly ahead of time.
