MUSTARD-PARMESAN WHOLE ROASTED CAULIFLOWER



Mustard-Parmesan Whole Roasted Cauliflower image

Even meat eaters will want a piece of these impressive, high-fiber veggies. The Dijon mustard concentrates in flavor as it roasts, resulting in a powerful punch of umami. Prep and brush your cauliflower ahead of time, then let them sit at room temperature until you're ready to cook.

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Categories     side-dish

Time 1h15m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 large heads cauliflower
1 clove garlic, halved
1/4 cup olive oil
4 tablespoons Dijon mustard
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/2 cup fresh parsley leaves, roughly chopped
1/4 cup grated Parmesan
Lemon wedges, for serving

Steps:

  • Position an oven rack in the bottom of the oven and preheat to 450 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with foil.
  • Remove the leaves from the cauliflower, then trim the stem flush with the bottom of the head so the cauliflower sits flat on the prepared baking sheet. Rub the outside of each head with the cut garlic.
  • Whisk together the oil, 3 tablespoons mustard, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of black pepper in a small bowl.
  • Put the cauliflower on the prepared baking sheet and brush the entire outside and inside with the mustard-oil mixture. Roast the cauliflower until nicely charred and tender (a long skewer inserted in the center of the cauliflower should pass through easily), 50 minutes to 1 hour. Let rest for a few minutes.
  • Meanwhile, combine the parsley and Parmesan in a small bowl. Brush the outside of the roasted cauliflower heads all over with the remaining 1 tablespoon mustard and generously sprinkle with the Parmesan mixture.
  • Cut the cauliflower into thick wedges and serve on plates with a sprinkle of salt, lemon wedges and any extra Parmesan mixture.

ROASTED CAULIFLOWER WITH CHEDDAR CHEESE SAUCE

Categories     Side     Roast     St. Patrick's Day     Cheddar     Cauliflower     Winter     Vegetarian     Pescatarian     Peanut Free     Tree Nut Free     Soy Free     No Sugar Added     Kosher

Yield Makes 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 large head cauliflower (about 1 pound total)
4 tablespoons (1/2 stick) unsalted butter
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1/8 teaspoon fine sea salt
2 cups whole milk
10 ounces Cheddar cheese or similar, grated (about 1 1/4 cup)
Special Equipment
12- by 8-inch baking dish

Steps:

  • Position a rack in the middle of the oven and preheat to 375°F. Arrange a steamer rack over a large pot of boiling water.
  • Remove the green outer leaves from the cauliflower, place it on the steamer rack, and steam until tender, about 10 minutes. Transfer to a large bowl to cool. Once the cauliflower is cool enough to handle, use your hands to gently break the florets from the thick central stalk-try to break the cauliflower into large florets rather than small pieces. Arrange the florets, in one layer, in a 12- by 8-inch baking dish and set aside.
  • In a large heavy saucepan over moderate heat, melt the butter. Reduce the heat to low, add the flour and salt, and whisk until both are incorporated and the mixture turns golden brown, about 2 minutes. Raise the heat to moderate and add the milk, whisking constantly, until a smooth sauce forms (the sauce should be thick and glossy, but still runny), about 5 minutes. (If the sauce is too thick, gradually whisk in additional milk until the desired consistency is achieved.) Add 1 cup of the grated cheese and whisk until melted, about 1 minute. Pour the cheese sauce over the cauliflower, making sure to cover all the florets. Sprinkle with the remaining 1/4 cup cheese and season with pepper, then bake until the cauliflower is golden brown and the cheese sauce is bubbling, about 30 minutes.

PAN-ROASTED SPICED CAULIFLOWER WITH PEAS



Pan-Roasted Spiced Cauliflower With Peas image

This dish is inspired by a trip to Curry Hill, a neighborhood in New York dotted with stores selling saris, Indian restaurants, Pakistani cafes and hole-in-the-wall spice shops. When I got home from my shopping spree, a cauliflower was screaming for Indian spices, garlic and ginger. Better still, I knew I could knock together a pan-roasted meal in about 20 minutes.

Provided by David Tanis

Categories     dinner, easy, quick, weekday, main course, side dish

Time 20m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

3 tablespoons ghee, clarified butter or vegetable oil
1 small cauliflower about 1 1/2 pounds, cored, in 1/2-inch slices
Kosher salt and black pepper
1 teaspoon cumin seeds
1 teaspoon black mustard seeds
2 teaspoons grated fresh turmeric or 1 teaspoon ground turmeric
2 to 3 makrut lime leaves (optional)
1 (1-inch) piece of ginger, peeled and slivered or finely grated
3 garlic cloves, finely chopped
2 serrano chiles, finely chopped, or to taste
1 pound fresh English peas, shucked about 1 cup or frozen peas, or 1/2 pound snow peas or sugar snap peas, trimmed
2 to 3 scallions, slivered
Cilantro sprigs, for garnish
Lime wedges, for serving

Steps:

  • Heat a large sauté pan or cast-iron skillet over medium-high. Add the ghee or oil, and when it is hot, add the cauliflower. Stir until the cauliflower begins to color, 1 to 2 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Continue stirring until the cauliflower is half-cooked, about 5 minutes, lowering the heat if necessary to keep it from browning too quickly.
  • Add the cumin, mustard seeds, turmeric and makrut lime leaves, if using. When they begin to sizzle, add the ginger, garlic and chilies. Stir well and add the peas, along with a sprinkle of salt. Cover to let the peas steam until tender, 2 to 4 minutes. Sprinkle with the slivered scallions and cilantro. Serve with lime wedges.

SPICED ROASTED CAULIFLOWER WITH FETA AND GARLIC



Spiced Roasted Cauliflower With Feta and Garlic image

Cauliflower undergoes a few stages of cooking in this recipe, and, for a deep brown and ridiculous flavor, it's important to see it through all of them. It will be cooked through about halfway through roasting, but to transform it from pale and tender to crisp and golden brown, it must continue roasting at very high heat. Make sure to keep the smaller bits that fall away as you prepare and slice the cauliflower. They'll get the most golden and crunchy, almost like little cauliflower bread crumbs.

Provided by Alison Roman

Categories     weekday, vegetables, side dish

Time 35m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 small head cauliflower
6 garlic cloves, smashed
3 tablespoons olive oil, plus more for serving
2 teaspoons fennel or cumin seed
1 teaspoon ground turmeric
Pinch of red-pepper flakes
Kosher salt and ground pepper
1 ounce feta cheese, sliced or crumbled
¼ cup parsley, tender leaves and stems, coarsely chopped
¼ cup cilantro, mint or dill, tender leaves and stems, coarsely chopped

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 450 degrees. Slice cauliflower lengthwise into ½-inch thick slices, including the core and leaves. (Some of the first slices will crumble and fall apart. This is O.K., and will be useful when you want those crispier bits.)
  • Place cauliflower (slices and crumbles) and garlic on a rimmed baking sheet and drizzle with olive oil. Sprinkle with fennel seed, turmeric and red-pepper flakes, and season with salt and pepper.
  • Roast, without disturbing, until cauliflower has turned a deep golden brown and crisped up in spots, 25 to 30 minutes. Using a spatula, flip the larger steaks and stir the smaller bits around and continue to roast until completely and evenly browned, another 8 to 10 minutes.
  • Remove from heat and transfer to a large serving platter. Top with feta, herbs and a drizzle of olive oil.

### Tips
  • Choose the right cauliflower: Look for a head of cauliflower that is firm and compact, with no blemishes or bruises. A heavy head of cauliflower will have more florets and be more flavorful.
  • Trim the cauliflower: Remove the leaves and the tough outer stem from the cauliflower. Cut the cauliflower into florets of about 1-inch in size.
  • Toss the cauliflower with oil and seasonings: In a large bowl, toss the cauliflower florets with olive oil, salt, pepper, and any other desired seasonings. Be sure to coat the florets evenly.
  • Roast the cauliflower: Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Spread the cauliflower florets in a single layer on a baking sheet. Roast the cauliflower for 20-25 minutes, or until the florets are tender and slightly caramelized.
  • Serve the cauliflower: Roasted cauliflower can be served immediately or at room temperature. It can be enjoyed as a side dish, appetizer, or snack.

Tips

  • Choose the right cauliflower: Look for a head of cauliflower that is firm and compact, with no blemishes or bruises. A heavy head of cauliflower will have more florets and be more flavorful.
  • Trim the cauliflower: Remove the leaves and the tough outer stem from the cauliflower. Cut the cauliflower into florets of about 1-inch in size.
  • Toss the cauliflower with oil and seasonings: In a large bowl, toss the cauliflower florets with olive oil, salt, pepper, and any other desired seasonings. Be sure to coat the florets evenly.
  • Roast the cauliflower: Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Spread the cauliflower florets in a single layer on a baking sheet. Roast the cauliflower for 20-25 minutes, or until the florets are tender and slightly caramelized.
  • Serve the cauliflower: Roasted cauliflower can be served immediately or at room temperature. It can be enjoyed as a side dish, appetizer, or snack.
