Roasted Cauliflower Steaks With Golden Raisins And Pine Nuts Recipes

ROASTED CAULIFLOWER STEAKS WITH GOLDEN RAISINS & PINE NUTS RECIPE - (4.2/5)

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Place the cauliflower steaks on a baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper on both sides. Transfer to the oven and bake until golden brown, 20 to 25 minutes, flipping after the first 10 minutes. Meanwhile, add the pine nuts to a dry medium saute pan and toast over medium heat until brown, about 3 minutes. Add the raisins and the butter, and season with salt. Cook until the butter has melted and coats the pine nuts and raisins. Off the heat, stir in the parsley. Transfer the roasted cauliflower to a serving platter. Pour the pine nut-raisin mixture over the top.

SWEET-AND-SOUR CAULIFLOWER WITH GOLDEN RAISINS

Steps:

• In a large, heavy pot, warm olive oil over medium-high heat until hot but not smoking. Add onions and cook, stirring, until softened and just turning golden, 5 to 8 minutes. Adjust the heat to prevent browning. Add saffron and stir to coat.
• Add cauliflower, season generously with salt and pepper and cook for 2 to 3 minutes, uncovered, stirring frequently.
• Add brown sugar, currants, raisins, lemon zest and juice, cider vinegar and 1 tablespoon sherry vinegar. Turn up heat and cook, stirring occasionally, until cauliflower is just tender, about 5 to 8 minutes more.
• Remove pot from heat, taste and adjust the seasonings with salt and sherry vinegar. Set aside for at least 10 minutes (or up to 2 days, refrigerated) before serving.
• When ready to serve, transfer to a serving dish and sprinkle with chives and pine nuts. Serve hot or at room temperature.
