WHOLE WHEAT PASTA WITH CAULIFLOWER, WALNUTS AND RICOTTA SALATA image

Categories     Pasta

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 heads cauliflower
1 medium onion
4 cloves garlic
1 pound whole-wheat pasta
Extra-virgin olive oil
Salt and pepper
1 pinch red pepper flakes
White wine vinegar
1/2 lemon
1/2 cup toasted walnuts
4 ounces ricotta salata or feta cheese

Steps:

  • Put a large pot of water on to boil. Cut the cauliflower into small flowerets. Peel the onion and slice it very thin. Peel and finely chop the garlic. Put the pasta on to cook. Saute the cauliflower in olive oil in a large saute pan. When the cauliflower begins to soften, season with salt and pepper and add the sliced onion and red pepper flakes. Saute over medium to high heat until the vegetables are brown and tender. The cauliflower should still be slightly crunchy and should not taste steamed. Add the garlic and remove from the heat, tossing and stirring so the garlic doesn't burn; if it starts to brown, add a splash of water. Add a few drops each of vinegar and lemon juice and the toasted walnuts. Taste and correct the seasoning. When the pasta is done, drain and add to the cauliflower, adding enough extra-virgin olive oil to coat the pasta thoroughly, toss together and serve, with the cheese crumbled over the dish.

This was a great recipe! The cauliflower was roasted perfectly and the walnuts added a nice crunch. The ricotta salata was the perfect finishing touch. I will definitely be making this again.

This dish was just okay. The cauliflower was a bit bland and the walnuts were too crunchy. The ricotta salata was good, but it didn't really add much to the dish. I probably won't be making this again.

This recipe was a bit too bland for my taste. The cauliflower was not very flavorful and the walnuts were not crunchy enough. The ricotta salata was good, but it didn't really add much to the dish. I probably won't be making this again.
