Roasted Whole Cauliflower with Cumin and Turmeric

Hawaij is the name for two different Yemeni spice blends. One is sweet and used as a flavoring for coffee; the other is savory, with a curry-like profile. The latter was the inspiration for this roasted cauliflower. A two-stage application of the spice mixture—half at the start, half near the end—creates depth of flavor.
