Ambrosial Roasted Garlic Cauliflower Recipes

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.

Steps:

• Make the roasted garlic: Preheat the oven to 400˚ F. Cut the top 1 inch off the garlic heads and place on a large sheet of foil, cut-sides up. Drizzle with the olive oil and season lightly with salt and pepper. Wrap the foil around the garlic heads and bake until the garlic is browned and soft, about 1 hour. Remove from the oven and unwrap. When cool enough to handle, squeeze the garlic cloves out of their skins. You should have about 1 cup roasted garlic.
• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Meanwhile, make the glaze: Combine the roasted garlic, olive oil, Dijon mustard, shallot, vegan mayonnaise, 1 teaspoon salt, 2 teaspoons pepper, the sage and rosemary in a blender and puree until smooth. Transfer the glaze to a bowl and stir in the grainy mustard.
• Working in batches if needed, add the cauliflower to the boiling water and cook until slightly puffed and yellowed, 8 to 10 minutes. Drain and let cool.
• Preheat the oven to 400˚ F (use the convection setting, if available). Transfer the cauliflower to a rimmed baking sheet. Brush with the sunflower oil and sprinkle with 2 teaspoons each salt and pepper. Bake 10 minutes.
• Remove the cauliflower from the oven and pour the mustard glaze evenly over each head. Return to the oven and bake until the glaze turns golden brown, 8 to 12 minutes.

Steps:

• Preheated oven to 450 degrees.
• Rinse cut cauliflower and do not dry.
• Mix oil, rosemary, saffron, salt, pepper and garlic together. Let sit for 5 minutes.
• Pour over cauliflower and toss to coat.
• Place in a large cookie sheet pan in one layer.
• Roast for 15 minutes; give a toss and bake for 15 more minutes, toss and then an other 15 minutes, till crisp edges and tender. Do roast for an other 15 minutes if more tenderness is desired.
• Remove cauliflower and place in serving bowl.
• Remove garlic and herbs and place in blender or small food processor with 1/4 cup olive oil and lemon juice. Pulse till smooth. Pour over cauliflower and watch it disappear. Or place in a bowl for dipping or spread on crisp bread.

Steps:

• Heat oil in a heavy nonstick skillet over medium high heat.
• Saute next 4 ingredients 2-3 minutes, stirring frequently.
• Add stock, cover skillet and cook another 3-4 minutes or until cauliflower is tender.

Steps:

• Cut each cauliflower in quarters and remove the core. Cut quarters into 1/2-inch-thick slices. Chop down wider slices so all are approximately the same jagged size.
• Heat olive oil in a heavy wide skillet over medium-high heat. When oil is hot, add cauliflower and toss to coat using a metal spatula or flat wooden spoon. Season generously with salt and pepper.
• Keeping heat brisk, repeatedly turn the cauliflower, letting the slices brown as they cook. Adjust heat as necessary to keep them sizzling nicely but not scorching. Continue to stir and flip the cauliflower until it is tender when pierced with a fork, 10 to 12 minutes.
• Add crushed red pepper, garlic, rosemary, parsley and lemon zest. Stir well to coat and cook 1 minute more. Check seasoning, then transfer to a serving platter. Sprinkle with almonds and fresno chile, if using, and serve with lemon wedges.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Place the cauliflower, garlic and bay leaves in a large bowl, toss with the oil, zest and juice and season generously. Spread evenly onto a baking sheet (use 2 if you need to). Roast for 20 mins, turning halfway, until al dente and caramelised.
