Como fazer Bring Me Your Head On A Platter Cauliflower

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
Wash a medium-sized cauliflower thoroughly, remove core and leaves, keeping the head intact.
Place cauliflower stem-side down in a microwave-safe dish with 1 cup of water. Microwave on high for 10 minutes.
Meanwhile, whisk together 2 tablespoons olive oil, 1 teaspoon dried rosemary, 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1/4 teaspoon black pepper, and 2 cloves minced garlic.
Pour the oil mixture evenly over the cauliflower head.
Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes.
Baste the cauliflower with the pan liquid. If all liquid has evaporated, add 1-2 tablespoons of water.
Increase oven temperature to 425°F (220°C).
Roast for another 30 minutes, or until tender and slightly browned, ensuring the head remains mostly intact.
For extra spooky fun (optional): Sprinkle 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese over the cauliflower during the last 10 minutes of baking.
Serve the whole cauliflower 'brain' on a platter with roasted garlic cloves for an impressive presentation.
For a truly terrifying presentation, consider placing the finished cauliflower in a plastic skull.
