Roasted Cauliflower With Garlic Breadcrumbs Recipes

ROASTED GARLIC CAULIFLOWER

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F (220 degrees C). Grease a large casserole dish.
• Place the olive oil and garlic in a large resealable bag. Add cauliflower, and shake to mix. Pour into the prepared casserole dish, and season with salt and pepper to taste.
• Bake for 25 minutes, stirring halfway through. Top with Parmesan cheese and parsley, and broil for 3 to 5 minutes, until golden brown.

ROASTED CAULIFLOWER WITH GARLIC & BREADCRUMBS

Steps:

• 1. Spread the chopped cauliflower out on a sheet pan. Sprinkle the garlic over the top. Drizzle with 1-2 tablespoons oil and the mix with your hands to combine. Sprinkle with salt & pepper. Bake at 350F for about 30 minutes, or until the cauliflower is tender.
• 2. Meanwhile, pulse the kaiser roll in the food processor until it turns to crumbs or break the roll up with your hands until it turns to crumbs. Add the crumbs to a pan drizzle with about 1 tablespoon oil. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Brown the crumbs over medium heat. Then stir in the parsley.
• 3. When the cauliflower is finished in the oven, sprinkle the breadcrumb mixture over the top and then serve.

WHOLE ROASTED CAULIFLOWER WITH ALMOND-HERB SAUCE

Steps:

• Heat the oven while you prepare the cauliflower: Place a heavy oven-proof skillet (a cast-iron skillet looks very nice) or a baking sheet in the oven and turn the heat to 375 degrees. Place a small pan of hot water on the floor of the oven, to create steam.
• Break off and discard the outer leaves from the cauliflower. Cut off the bottom of the stem, and then use the tip of a small, sharp knife to cut off the leaves close to the stem. Carefully cut out the hard core of the cauliflower, near the bottom. Leave the main stem intact and make sure not to cut through any of the florets.
• Rinse the cauliflower (leave the water clinging to the outside) and place on a work surface, core side up. Drizzle with olive oil and use your hands to rub over the cauliflower until evenly coated. Sprinkle with salt.
• Place the cauliflower on the hot pan in the oven, core side down, and cook until very tender all the way through when pierced with a knife, at least 1 hour or up to 2 hours. During the cooking, baste 2 or 3 times with more olive oil. It should brown nicely. If you have a convection feature, use it toward the end of baking to brown the crust.
• Make the sauce: In a small frying pan, toast nuts over low heat, shaking often, just until golden and fragrant. Set aside to cool.
• Soak anchovies, if using, for 5 minutes in cool water. Rinse and set aside on paper towels.
• In a food processor, combine almonds, anchovies, garlic and butter and pulse until smooth. Mix in oil, then vinegar. Mix in herbs and red pepper flakes, if using. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Set aside.
• When cauliflower is tender, remove from the oven. (If desired, run it briefly under the broiler first to brown the surface; there is no need to do this if you used convection.)
• Serve cauliflower in the skillet or from a serving plate. Cut into wedges and spoon sauce around each wedge.

ROASTED CAULIFLOWER WITH HERBED BREAD CRUMBS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Line a large, rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper and spray with cooking spray.
• Mix bread crumbs, thyme, oregano, basil, salt, and pepper together in a mixing bowl. Drizzle in the olive oil and rub it into the bread crumbs with your fingertips.
• Quickly run cauliflower under water to dampen slightly. Roll cauliflower around in the bread crumb mixture until crumbs stick; place in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet and sprinkle any excess crumbs over top.
• Roast in the preheated oven until tender and lightly browned, about 12 minutes.

ROASTED CAULIFLOWER WITH HERBED BREADCRUMBS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees, with racks in upper and lower thirds. On two large baking sheets, toss cauliflower florets, with 2 tablespoons olive oil; season with salt and pepper. Roast until tender and browned, 20 to 25 minutes, rotating sheets halfway through.
• Meanwhile, in a food processor, combine bread and garlic; season with salt and pepper. Pulse until coarse crumbs form. In a medium skillet, heat 2 tablespoons oil over medium. Add breadcrumbs and cook, tossing frequently, until toasted, 3 to 6 minutes. Transfer to a small bowl and let cool. Stir in parsley, thyme leaves, and lemon zest.
• Toss cauliflower with juice of the lemon and sprinkle with breadcrumbs.
