How to

2. Mash the butter, sage, nutmeg and garlic with some seasoning, and after the initial roasting, generously brush the butter all over the whole cauliflower.
3. Roast for 20-30 minutes more, until you can easily poke a knife into the centre of the stalk. Baste the cauli with the brown butter a few times while roasting.
