Spaghetti With Roasted Cauliflower, Tomato Sauce and Olives image

Perhaps because cauliflower is on the bland side and Mediterranean black olives have such a pronounced flavor, the two go beautifully together. In Italy, Greece and in North Africa, you find the triumvirate of cauliflower, tomatoes and olives in all sorts of dishes.

Categories     dinner, pastas, main course

Time 1h10m

Yield Serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 12

1/2 medium head of cauliflower, broken into florets
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
2 garlic cloves, minced
1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes, to taste
1 (14-ounce) can chopped tomatoes, with juice
Pinch of sugar
1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves, or 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
Salt
freshly ground pepper
12 kalamata olives, pitted and cut in half lengthwise
3/4 pound spaghetti
2 ounces either feta (crumbled), ricotta salata, Parmesan, or a mix of Parmesan and Pecorino (grated)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Bring a large pot of generously salted water to a boil and add the cauliflower. Blanch for two minutes and transfer to a bowl of ice water. Drain and blot dry. Cover the pot; you'll use the water again for the pasta. Quarter the cauliflower florets, toss with 1 tablespoon of olive oil and salt generously. Transfer to a baking sheet, place in the oven and roast 30 minutes, stirring from time to time, until tender and lightly browned. Remove from the oven and set aside.
  • Meanwhile, in a wide, nonstick frying pan or a 3-quart saucepan, heat the remaining oil over medium heat and add the garlic and red pepper flakes. Cook, stirring, until fragrant, about one minute. Add the tomatoes, sugar, thyme and salt, and bring to a simmer. Simmer over medium-low heat, stirring often, until thick, 15 to 20 minutes. Stir in the cauliflower and the olives, and simmer a few minutes more. Taste and adjust seasonings.
  • Bring the water back to a rolling boil. Add the spaghetti and cook until the pasta is al dente, usually about 10 minutes. Drain and toss with the cauliflower-tomato mixture. Sprinkle the cheese over the top and serve at once.

ROASTED CAULIFLOWER GRATIN WITH TOMATOES AND GOAT CHEESE



Roasted Cauliflower Gratin With Tomatoes and Goat Cheese image

Roasting is one of my favorite ways to prepare cauliflower, and I have always loved preparations that pair the vegetable with coriander seeds. I use coriander seeds and cinnamon to season the tomato sauce that I toss with the roasted cauliflower and sautéed red onions, then add a couple of eggs beaten with goat cheese.

Provided by Martha Rose Shulman

Categories     dinner, lunch, main course, side dish

Time 1h20m

Yield Serves 4 to 6

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 medium-size head of cauliflower
Salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1 small or 1/2 large red onion, cut in half or quarters (if using a whole onion) lengthwise, then sliced thin across the grain
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves
1 (14 8/10-ounce) can chopped tomatoes in juice
1/8 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon coriander seeds, lightly toasted and coarsely ground
2 eggs
2 1/2 ounces soft goat cheese (about 1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons)
2 to 3 teaspoon chopped chives

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment or foil. Cut away the bottom of the cauliflower stem and trim off leaves. Cut cauliflower into 1/3 inch thick slices, letting the florets on the edges fall off. Toss all of it, including the bits that have fallen away, with 2 tablespoons of the olive oil, salt, and pepper. Place on baking sheet in an even layer.
  • Roast for 15 to 20 minutes, stirring and flipping over the big slices after 8 minutes, until the slices are tender when pierced with a paring knife and the small florets are nicely browned. Remove from oven and cut large slices into smaller pieces. You should have about 2 cups. Transfer to a large bowl. Turn oven down to 375 degrees.
  • Oil a 1-1/2 to 2-quart baking dish or gratin. Heat remaining oil over medium heat in a medium-size skillet or a wide saucepan and add onion. Cook, stirring, until tender, about 5 minutes. Add a generous pinch of salt and the garlic and thyme and continue to cook, stirring, until garlic is fragrant, 30 seconds to a minute. Add tomatoes, cinnamon, ground coriander seeds, and salt and pepper to taste and bring to a simmer. Cook, stirring often, over medium-low heat, for 10 to 15 minutes, until the tomatoes have cooked down and the sauce is fragrant. Taste and adjust seasoning. Add to bowl with the cauliflower and stir everything together. Scrape into prepared baking dish.
  • Set aside 2 tablespoons of the goat cheese. Beat eggs, then add the remaining cheese and beat together until smooth. Pour over cauliflower mixture, making sure to scrape out every last bit with a rubber spatula. Dot top with small pieces of the remaining goat cheese and sprinkle on chives.
  • Bake 30 minutes, until top is beginning to brown in spots. Remove from oven and allow to sit for 5 to 10 minutes before serving.

Tips:

  • Choose the right cauliflower: Select a head of cauliflower that is firm and has tightly packed florets. Avoid any heads that have brown or yellow spots, as these are signs of spoilage.
  • Cut the cauliflower into uniform florets: This will help them cook evenly. Cut the cauliflower into 1-inch florets, and then cut each floret in half lengthwise.
  • Roast the cauliflower before adding the sauce: This will help to caramelize the cauliflower and give it a slightly smoky flavor. Roast the cauliflower for 15-20 minutes at 425 degrees Fahrenheit, or until it is tender and slightly browned.
  • Use a flavorful tomato sauce: The tomato sauce is the star of this dish, so be sure to use a sauce that you love. You can use a store-bought sauce, or you can make your own. If you are making your own sauce, be sure to use fresh, ripe tomatoes.
  • Add plenty of cheese: The four cheeses in this recipe (mozzarella, Parmesan, Asiago, and Romano) add a rich and flavorful topping to the cauliflower. Be sure to use a cheese that you love, and don't be afraid to experiment with different combinations.

Conclusion:

Broiled cauliflower with four-cheese tomato sauce is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The cauliflower is roasted until tender and slightly browned, and then topped with a flavorful tomato sauce and plenty of cheese. This dish is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
