Ingredients
  

1 medium head of cauliflower, cut into florets

3 tablespoons harissa paste (adjust for spice preference)

2 tablespoons olive oil

1 teaspoon smoked paprika

1 teaspoon garlic powder

Salt and pepper to taste

1 tablespoon lemon juice

Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Pomegranate seeds (for garnish, optional)

Instructions
 

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).

    In a large mixing bowl, combine the harissa paste, olive oil, smoked paprika, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Mix well to form a marinade.

      Add the cauliflower florets to the bowl and toss them in the marinade until they are well coated.

        Spread the marinated cauliflower evenly on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

          Roast in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the cauliflower is tender and lightly charred, flipping the florets halfway through for even cooking.

            Once roasted, remove from the oven and drizzle with lemon juice to brighten the flavors.

              Transfer to a serving dish and garnish with fresh parsley and pomegranate seeds for a pop of color and sweetness.

                  - Presentation Tips: Serve on a large platter, allowing the vibrant colors to shine through. The pomegranate seeds add a lovely contrast against the roasted cauliflower, making the dish visually enticing.
