Notes: keep an eye on this, while cooking, depending on your oven! Cauliflower should be a bit browned around the edges, but it's easy to overdo. Take it out when it looks tasty.

I've modified this recipe a wee bit over time,and like the results.
Here's what I've done:

-Add 1 1/2 tsp ground coriander seed
-Increase turmeric to nearly a teaspoon
-Add a bit of grated ginger, maybe a tablespoon
-Add 1/2 tsp nigella seed (kalonji) (black onion seed)
-(If you're not hard-core into Indian cooking as I am, you wont likely have this, but it adds a nice flavour:) A pinch of Asafoetida (Hing).
-Lime juice is a very nice substitute for the drizzle of lemon juice
-Be very generous with the chopped fresh coriander leaf/cilantro

These little things will take the recipe from good to... Wow! Nice!

Another hint:
Spread this out on a sheet of parchment paper placed over your baking sheet, for easy removal to a serving bowl, and cleanup.
