Notes

Use fresh cauliflower for best texture, but thawed frozen cauliflower works if dried well.
Avoid overcrowding the pan to keep cauliflower crispy.
Shred cheese fresh for smoother melting.
Leftovers store well in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
Reheat in a skillet for best flavour and texture.
