Ingredients

• 500 grams Broccoli florets
• 500 grams Cauliflower florets
• 3 tablespoons Olive oil
• 3 pieces Garlic cloves, minced
• 1 teaspoon Lemon zest
• 1 teaspoon Paprika
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoons Black pepper
• 50 grams Parmesan cheese, grated (optional)
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine broccoli florets and cauliflower florets.

Step 3

Drizzle the olive oil over the florets and toss them to coat evenly.

Step 4

Add the minced garlic, lemon zest, paprika, salt, and black pepper to the bowl. Toss everything together until the florets are well-seasoned.

Step 5

Spread the seasoned florets in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they are not overcrowded for even roasting.

Step 6

Roast in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, stirring halfway through, until the florets are tender and slightly crispy on the edges.

Step 7

If using, sprinkle grated Parmesan cheese over the florets in the last 5 minutes of roasting for a melted, cheesy touch.

Step 8

Remove the roasted florets from the oven and transfer them to a serving dish.

Step 9

Garnish with fresh parsley before serving. Enjoy your delicious Roasted Florets!
