8 Reviews of Cauliflower Poppers - 0 Points

From: A la Carte

On Jan 22, 2007

I liked the flavor of the cumin with the chili, especially with the cauliflower, but I think they definitely needed something else, maybe extra salt? Or something saltier. And I too doubled the cooking time and they were still not tender,just barely cooked. I thought the texture was odd - rubbery almost. For an extra point or two I would add some freshly grated parmesan(just a TBSP or two) and then toss them with the cooking spray to help the spice stick. OR, maybe dip them in egg white then toss with spice and maybe the parmesan. Anyway I hope the helps if like me, you were a little disappointed. I wonder if blanching the cauli first and then tossing it with the spices would help them cook and crisp up a bit? Will try. Thanks for submitting, I like the idea and will try again and play with the recipe.

    If you like cumin-spiked dishes, then you'll love this. Tasty & quick little snack to throw together. This recipe helps me like cauliflower more! Thanks for such a easy and healthy idea.(FYI- did have to double the cooking time and they were still tender-crisp)

    These are amazing! For some reason, they remind me of cafeteria fries (which at my school are, suprisingly, really good). I did have to increase the cooking time, but they were good without being totally crispy.

    Nice and spicy! I made just as you posted and will make again. I added a little more cooking time. Thanks!

    I had never baked cauliflower before and was unsure of doing so, but I was definitely happy with the outcome. I did add about 1 tablespoon of olive oil to the cauliflower which probably helped the spices to stick. I cooked it on a non-stick mat so I didn't spray the pan. Cooking time was closer to the 20 minutes others indicated.

    Great snack, I like the spices used. It took around 40 minutes to get the cauliflower cooked and brown the way I enjoy it. I also gave a quick spray to the cauliflower to help it along.
