Cauliflowers!!! I've got one left don't want cheese, curry or just boiled. reading previous topics soups was an idea any good recipes.
Have you ever tried it roasted? I put it in a baking tray with potatoes, carrots, and onions, drizzle over olive oil and season and roast until done. I usually bake some sausages at the same time [in another dish], add them to the veg after about 3/4 hr and then drizzle over a mixture of soy sauce, garlic, sugar and lime juice and then cook for about another 10 mins or so. Goes well with cabbage or another green veg.
I've had cauliflower pil pil here in Spain, fry in lots of olive oil with chili and garlic and lemon juice Mmmmm!!
I make piccallili.

Cauliflower is lovely curried, it obsorbs flavours beautifully. Cauliflower & potato curried makes one of those lovely side dishes, I just love cauli and not one to be found on our site this year! ???
Thanks no excuse now not to use it now before it goes any softer. :)

Cauliflower salad - Italian antipasti recipe
1 cauli cut into florets
60g each stoned green and black olives, halved
2 tbs capers in vinegar, drained
1 red pepper, chopped (you can use the canned or bottled ones if you can't digest them raw)
5 anchovy fillets, drained and cut in half
3 small carrots, cut into long strips witha potato peeler
6tbs vigin olive oil
1 tbs white wine vinegar
S & P to taste
Blanch the cauli florets 4 to 5 mins in boiling water then dreain and refresh under cold water. They should still be crisp but not raw. Place the acrrot shreds in iced water for 10 minutes to curl them then drain.
Combine all the ingredients in a serving bowl and toss well. I use it as a salad for BBQs and also as part of a range of antipasti for parties or a light lunch.
