Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
Cut the cauliflower into 1/2-inch-thick slices.
In a large bowl, whisk together the tahini, olive oil, curry powder, cumin, salt and pepper.
Toss the cauliflower into the tahini-curry mixture.
Arrange the cauliflower in a single layer on a sheet pan. It should not be overlapping.
Roast for 20-25 minutes, flipping halfway through cooking, until browned.
Sprinkle with parsley before serving.
You can substitute the chopped parsley with cilantro or use a combination of both.
Serve the cauliflower warm or at room temperature.
