Ingredients

Scale
  • 1/2 head each purple, green and orange cauliflower
  • 2 tablespoons canola oil or spray
  • Salt & pepper
  • 2 tablespoons gluten-free soy sauce (or liquid aminos)
  • 1 teaspoon fish sauce
  • 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons organic maple syrup
  • 1 tablespoon sambal oelek (red chili paste)
  • 1 large lime, freshly squeezed

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Wash the cauliflower and thoroughly dry on a kitchen towel or paper towels.
