Cauliflower is a pretty bland vegetable on it’s own, that’s why we’ve combined whiskey barrel aged maple + sriracha to give this roasted cauliflower recipe a flavor kick.
This sweet and spicy combo of maple sriracha roasted cauliflower is excellent for pairing with any main entree. We enjoyed these hot maple bites with freshly caught snapper. [That’s a one major benefit of living in Florida.]
Ready to conquer dinner tonight? Let’s go…
Even though we strongly suggest using fresh cauliflower for this recipe, time wasn’t on our side so we settled for frozen cauliflower. Those beautiful, multi-color florets are from Trader Joe’s and they definitely added an extra pop to the dinner plate!
If you love spicy food, add a full tablespoon of the whiskey sriracha. Keep in mind, regular sriracha is less spicy then whiskey aged sriracha. [This was your warning!]
