Time 40m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil, plus more for brushing
1 teaspoon ground coriander
1 teaspoon ground cumin
pinch of cayenne pepper
1 head cauliflower, cut into 1 to 2-inch long, 1/2-inch thick florets
4 garlic cloves, sliced
1/4 cup raisins, chopped
1/4 cup water
2 tablespoons white balsamic, or rice wine vinegar
1/4 cup chopped Italian parsley
1/2 cup Diamond of California® chopped toasted walnuts

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400°F. Brush a heavy large rimmed baking sheet with olive oil. Stir 3 tablespoons olive oil, coriander, cumin and cayenne to blend in a large bowl. Add the cauliflower and garlic and toss to coat. Spread the cauliflower out into a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.

Set the baking sheet over medium heat. Combine the raisins, water and vinegar on the baking sheet and boil, stirring up the browned bits from the bottom of the baking sheet until the liquid is reduced to about 2 tablespoons, about 1 minute. Transfer the contents of the baking sheet to the cauliflower. Add the parsley and walnuts and toss to combine.

Time 55m

Yield 3 to 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 head cauliflower, cut into 3/4-inch florets
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
3/4 teaspoon kosher salt, more as needed
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 large or 2 small leeks, halved and thinly sliced
2 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
1 tablespoon thyme leaves, more for serving
8 ounces short pasta such as campanelle, orecchiette, conchiglie, farfalle or fusilli
3 tablespoons unsalted butter, cubed, at room temperature
6 ounces Gorgonzola dolce, crumbled, at room temperature
Fresh lemon juice, to taste
2 tablespoons chopped chives, for serving

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 425 degrees. In a large bowl, toss cauliflower with olive oil, salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Spread onto a rimmed baking sheet in an even layer, and bake for 20 minutes.
  • Add leeks, garlic and thyme to the cauliflower on the sheet pan, then roast another 20 minutes, tossing the vegetables halfway through, until they are very tender and deeply caramelized.
  • Meanwhile, bring a large pot of heavily salted water to a boil. Cook pasta until it is 1 minute shy of being al dente. (It will continue to cook in the residual heat of the pot.) Scoop out about 1 cup pasta water (a coffee mug is good for this), then drain pasta. Return the pasta to the empty pot, along with butter, Gorgonzola, remaining 3/4 teaspoon pepper and 1/2 cup pasta water, stirring to melt cheese.
  • Toss roasted vegetables into pasta, then stir in lemon juice and salt and pepper to taste. Add more pasta water if mixture looks dry. To serve, spoon into bowls and top with chives and sprinkle of thyme leaves.

Tips:

  • Choose the freshest cauliflower possible. A good head of cauliflower will be compact and heavy, with no brown or yellow spots.
  • Cut the cauliflower into even florets. This will help them cook evenly.
  • Roast the cauliflower until it is tender and slightly browned. Roasting brings out the natural sweetness of the cauliflower.
  • Use a good quality gorgonzola cheese. A sharp, flavorful gorgonzola will add a lot of flavor to the dish.
  • Toast the walnuts before adding them to the dish. Toasting brings out their nutty flavor.
  • Serve the cauliflower immediately after it is cooked. This is when it is at its best.

Conclusion:

Cauliflower with gorgonzola and walnuts is a delicious and easy-to-make side dish. It is perfect for a weeknight meal or a special occasion. The combination of roasted cauliflower, sharp gorgonzola, and toasted walnuts is sure to please everyone at the table.
