Yield Makes 6 Servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

Roasted cauliflower:
2 1/2 cups dry white wine
1/3 cup olive oil
1/4 cup kosher salt
3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 tablespoon crushed red pepper flakes
1 tablespoon sugar
1 bay leaf
1 head of cauliflower, leaves removed
Whipped goat cheese and assembly:
4 ounces fresh goat cheese
3 ounces cream cheese
3 ounces feta
1/3 cup heavy cream
2 tablespoons olive oil plus more for serving
Coarse sea salt (for serving)

Steps:

  • For roasted cauliflower:
  • Preheat oven to 475°F. Bring wine, oil, kosher salt, juice, butter, red pepper flakes, sugar, bay leaf, and 8 cups water to a boil in a large pot. Add cauliflower, reduce heat, and simmer, turning occasionally, until a knife easily inserts into center, 15-20 minutes.
  • Using 2 slotted spoons or a mesh spider, transfer cauliflower to a rimmed baking sheet, draining well. Roast, rotating sheet halfway through, until brown all over, 30-40 minutes.
  • For whipped goat cheese and assembly:
  • While cauliflower is roasting, blend goat cheese, cream cheese, feta, cream, and 2 tablespoons oil in a food processor until smooth; season with sea salt. Transfer whipped goat cheese to a serving bowl and drizzle with oil.
  • Transfer cauliflower to a plate. Drizzle with oil; sprinkle with sea salt. Serve with whipped goat cheese.
  • DO AHEAD: Whipped goat cheese can be made 1 day ahead. Cover; chill.

This recipe was a waste of time. The cauliflower was not roasted to perfection and the whipped goat cheese was not very flavorful.

This recipe was a little disappointing. The cauliflower was not as roasted as I would have liked and the whipped goat cheese was not very flavorful.

I was a little hesitant to try this recipe because I'm not a big fan of cauliflower. But I was pleasantly surprised! The roasted cauliflower was actually really good, and the whipped goat cheese was the perfect topping.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover cauliflower. I roasted the cauliflower a little longer than the recipe called for, and it turned out perfectly crispy.
