ROASTED CAULIFLOWER WITH CAPER VINAIGRETTE



Roasted Cauliflower with Caper Vinaigrette image

Provided by Anne Burrell

Time 35m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 head cauliflower
Extra-virgin olive oil
Kosher salt
1/4 cup capers
1 clove garlic, smashed
1/4 cup red wine vinegar
1 bunch fresh parsley, coarsely chopped
1/4 cup golden raisins

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
  • To prepare the cauliflower, pull and cut off the green leaves. Cut the head in half from the top to the bottom. Cut out the core, and then cut the top into smaller pieces leaving some stem attached. You want bite-sized florets that look like little trees of cauliflower.
  • Toss the cauliflower with olive oil and salt and place in the oven. Roast the cauliflower for 20 minutes.
  • While the cauliflower is roasting, puree the capers, garlic, vinegar, and parsley in a food processor. While the machine is running, drizzle in 1/4 cup olive oil. Taste and season with salt, if needed.
  • Toss the roasted cauliflower with the vinaigrette and sprinkle with the raisins.

ROASTED CAULIFLOWER, RAISINS AND ANCHOVY VINAIGRETTE



Roasted Cauliflower, Raisins and Anchovy Vinaigrette image

Roasting toughens cauliflower and dries it out a bit. With many foods, this description may not sound that appealing, but because cauliflower is often mushy and watery, roasting is beneficial. Here, a (rather strong) vinaigrette is tossed with the cauliflower immediately after roasting, along with the raisins, whose sweetness counters the anchovies beautifully.

Categories     dinner, easy, lunch, side dish

Time 45m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 large cauliflower, cored, trimmed and separated into florets
1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons sherry or balsamic vinegar, or to taste
4 minced anchovy fillets, with a little of their oil, or to taste
1/2 cup raisins, preferably golden
1/2 cup chopped fresh parsley leaves

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 400 degrees. Put cauliflower in roasting pan, drizzle with 3 tablespoons oil and some salt and pepper; toss. Roast, turning once or twice, for 15 minutes or so, until cauliflower just starts to soften.
  • Meanwhile, make vinaigrette by combining remaining oil with vinegar, anchovies and a little salt and pepper; taste and adjust seasoning. Remove pan, drizzle cauliflower with 2 tablespoons of vinaigrette, and toss. Roast, turning once, until a thin-bladed knife pierces a piece with little resistance, for 15 minutes. (Recipe may be cooled at this point, covered tightly and refrigerated for 2 days.)
  • At the last minute, put cauliflower in a salad bowl and add raisins, parsley and remaining vinaigrette and toss. Taste and sprinkle with salt, if needed, and lots of pepper, then serve.

SCALLOPS AND CAULIFLOWER WITH CAPER-RAISIN SAUCE



Scallops and Cauliflower with Caper-Raisin Sauce image

Provided by Jean Georges Vongerichten

Yield Makes 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1/3 cup capers, drained of all but 1 tablespoon of their liquid
1/3 cup golden raisins
8 to 12 cauliflower florets
4 tablespoons (1/2 stick) butter
4 tablespoons canola, grapeseed, or other neutral-flavored oil
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons minced parsley leaves
12 large sea scallops (at least 1 pound) cut in half through their equators
1/4 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg, plus a little more
1 tablespoon sherry vinegar

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 250°F. Combine the capers and raisins in a small saucepan and add 3/4 cup water; simmer gently until the raisins are plump, about 10 minutes. Do not cook rapidly; you don't want to reduce the liquid. Let the mixture cool for a couple of minutes, then purée it in a blender. Return it to the saucepan.
  • Meanwhile, use a sharp knife or mandoline to cut the cauliflower florets into 1/4-inch-thick slices; you will need a total of 24 slices. Place 1 tablespoon each butter and oil in a large skillet and sauté the cauliflower over medium high heat; do this in 2 or more batches to avoid crowding (add another tablespoon of butter or oil when necessary.) Season it with salt and pepper as it cooks. Don't turn it too often; you want it to brown nicely. Total cooking time will be about 10 minutes, after which the cauliflower should be brown and crisp-tender. Remove and keep warm in a bowl in the oven.
  • Deglaze the pan by heating 1/4 cup water in it and stirring and scraping the bottom over high heat for a minute or two. Add the parsley and pour this juice over the cauliflower; gently stir and return the cauliflower to the oven while you cook the scallops.
  • Place 1 tablespoon each butter and oil in another large ovenproof skillet and turn the heat to medium-high. When the butter foams, add the scallops and cook on one side only until nicely browned, 2 to 3 minutes. Again, do this in batches to avoid crowding (adding another tablespoon of butter or oil when necessary). Remove the scallops from the pan as they brown and season with salt and pepper; keep them warm in the oven.
  • Reheat the sauce, then add the nutmeg, vinegar, and pepper and salt, if needed. Taste and adjust seasoning.
  • Spoon a little of the sauce onto each of 4 serving plates. Place 6 scallop pieces, browned side up, on each plate; top each scallop with a piece of cauliflower. Finish with a tiny grating of nutmeg.
