  • roasted cauliflower returns

    Ok Nullo thanks for the whole roasted cauliflower inspiration... because it has been reincarnated several times ...a formerly avoided veggie for me is now a favorite!!!.... if I can find a nice fresh.... not sulfery head of it ...it gets roasted!.... and I am not at all tired of the variations ..here is a great recipe I am making it tonight!
    I am thinking induction friendly since the dry white wine is cooked off? but if not leave it out...it is a nice touch but not essential if you are on induction!....great main dish or side...and can be made into a wonderful soup!...enjoy!

    Creamy Roasted Cauliflower and Mushrooms

    1 head of cauliflower washed dried and cut up into one inch slices
    2 T EVO
    kosher salt
    3 med sized shallots diced
    1/2 cup diced wild mushrooms (or any domestic mushroom)
    1 Tble Dry white wine
    1/2 tsp coriander seed toasted briefly and freshly ground
    1/2 cup heavy cream
    salt and pepper to taste

    preheat oven 425 degrees
    take the cut up cauliflower and toss in about 1/2 the EVO and salt it lightly and roast in a roasting pan about 20 min stir well to coat and release the steam and continue to cook until browned turning every ten to 15 min until browned....chop it all up coarsely when done and set aside
    in a hot saute pan pour the rest of the EVO and saute' :icondance the chopped mushrooms until tender over med heat then add the coriander saute :icondance a bit more then add the bit of wine and cook it off until just about dry when then you will add the cauliflower into the pan stir and heat through then add the cream warm through and serve!!!....

    this is beyond good and can be a great meal for a vegetarian!....you can add stock and puree part of this to make a creamy roasted cauliflower and mushroom soup!

      You have NOT tried roasting it yet?????...half a head is going to shrink to nothing do not be surprised but it tastes so good and rich you only need to eat a little!...I have prinkled chile on it ....cheese on it...curry on it....made soup out of it.....ate it with just salt and pepper...it is so good..that and roasted brussels sprouts!!!...are wonderful!...I was stunned as I was not a fan of those prior to this method of cooking!..now they are company food!!!....

      I love and miss James Beard....and think anything he and Julia made were from God!!!....

        I too did not know how much i love cauliflower- until Atkins and this recipe sounds yummy!! I am having it for dinner tomorrow night! I have found that roasting almost any veggie is better than steaming them. It intensifies the flavors! But I never thought about cauliflower- but I have had the brussel sprouts. Thanks!

          I totally agree all the cole veggies were pretty much at the bottom of my "I enjoy eating this list" and now I look for them at the grocery store...I am still iffy on brocolli but love the Chinese variety!

            Oh wow, that does look quite good... I have an oversides Costco bag of broccoli I am currently working my way through in the veggie dept though, that and an 8lb pork shoulder that I will be working my way through this week, just smoked it yesterday.
