Roasted Cauliflower With Garlic Cloves Recipes

ROASTED CAULIFLOWER WITH GARLIC AND HERBS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Toss the cauliflower with the olive oil, garlic, thyme and rosemary on a rimmed baking sheet until well coated. Sprinkle with 1 teaspoon salt and several grinds of pepper and toss again.
• Roast, stirring occasionally, until golden and tender, about 20 minutes.

GARLIC WHOLE ROASTED CAULIFLOWER

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Trim the cauliflower: Cut the stem flush with the bottom. Cut a few slits into the core extending into the thick branches of the cauliflower (keep the florets intact). Put 3 thyme sprigs, the smashed garlic, bay leaves, coriander seeds and peppercorns on a square of cheesecloth and tie into a bundle. Combine 12 cups water, the celery, shallot, lemon zest, wine, sugar, 1/3 cup salt and the cheesecloth bundle in a pot large enough to submerge the cauliflower. Bring to a boil, whisking to dissolve the salt and sugar. Carefully add the cauliflower core-side down and cook until there is a slight resistance when pierced with a knife, about 15 minutes. (It's OK if the top of the cauliflower pops up during cooking.) Remove the cauliflower to a baking sheet.
• Meanwhile, make the garlic oil: Combine the remaining 3 thyme sprigs, the sliced garlic, olive oil, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper in a small saucepan. Cook over medium heat until the garlic starts browning, 3 to 5 minutes. Discard the thyme. Brush the cauliflower with half of the oil, leaving the sliced garlic behind.
• Roast the cauliflower until browned and tender, 30 to 40 minutes, brushing halfway through with the remaining garlic oil; reserve 1 teaspoon garlic oil and the sliced garlic.
• Transfer the cauliflower to a cutting board or platter using a spatula. Add the parsley to the reserved garlic oil and spoon over the cauliflower. Cut into wedges.

PAN-ROASTED CAULIFLOWER WITH GARLIC, PARSLEY AND ROSEMARY

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.

ROASTED CAULIFLOWER WITH GARLIC CLOVES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
• Meanwhile, wash the cauliflower and break into florets.
• Take the heads of garlic and peel the individual cloves.
• Leave the peeled cloves whole.
• Put the cauliflower and the garlic cloves on a large cookie sheet with sides.
• Add the olive oil and generously sprinkle with salt and pepper.
• Mix well.
• If your cauliflower is really large, you might need a couple more Tablespoons of oil.
• Try and spread the cauliflower to a single layer.
• Bake for 10 minutes.
• Stir.
• Bake 5 more minutes and stir.
• Bake 5 more minutes and stir for a third time.
• You need to keep stirring every 5 minutes another time or two.
• The cauliflower tastes best when the garlic cloves and the smaller florets have browned.
• Notes:.
• A. I frequently make this with potatoes, but use a Martha Stewart tip for potatoes and put the baking sheet into the oven to preheat along with the oven. Mix the potatoes, garlic, oil, salt and pepper in a large mixing bowl. Sometimes I will add a dash of thyme, fennel, or rosemary. After the oven is preheated, remove the baking sheet and add the potatoes to the baking sheet--they will sizzle. This tip leads to potatoes that are a little bit more brown than they would normally be when following this recipe.
• B. I often like to buy whole peeled garlic cloves from Costco. They go bad fairly quickly, so I keep them in the freezer and just pull out what I need each time.
