Gather all ingredients and equipment.

In a small bowl, combine mustard, garlic, honey, smoked paprika, salt and oil. Mix until well combined. Set aside.

Place cauliflower in steamer basket.

Heat about 2 inches water in the bottom of a pot large enough to accommodate the whole head of cauliflower and still be able to put the lid on the pot. Place the whole caulliflower in the steamer basket, carefully lower into steamer and cook covered for about 12-14 minutes or until a paring knife when inserted meets no resistance and the cauliflower is no longer bright white.

Once done, carefully remove cauliflower from pot and steamer basket. Let cool 10 minutes.

Place cauliflower on a parchment or silicon mat lined sheet pan. Then brush with the mustard sauce.

Roast in preheated oven for 15 minutes or until golden brown and even some charred bits are forming.

Place on a serving platter and dust with dukkah to cover and sprinkle with parsley.
Cut into four wedges, serve and enjoy!
