Cauliflower is my sweet spot. It is simply beautiful (the cabbage flower, no less) and delicious. It is consumed around the world in a multitude of recipes: seasoned with lemon and deep fried in the middle-east, boiled and accommodated in curries in India, au gratin in France, roasted with herbs, and many more. Have you ever tried “Gobi Manchurian”, an Indian Chinese recipe, where the cauliflower is fried “Orange Chicken” style? This dish is absolutely amazing…
You can actually use cauliflower instead of chicken in many recipes.
My favorite is roasted, or broiled to be precise. It takes on a nutty flavor that makes it irresistible. Even if I am using cauliflower for a stew or au gratin, I first broil it. An added bonus is that it does not smell as bad as when you boil it.
Here are my favorite cauliflower recipes:
- Cauliflower au Gratin (creamy, cheesy and tasty, everything you need on a bad day to lift up your spirits and awaken your senses)
- Roasted Cauliflower (simply divine)
- Cauliflower Fritters (a delightful appetizer that will titillate your taste buds)
- Cauliflower curry (extremely satisfying)
