Reserve the remaining (rather strong) vinaigrette for tossing with the cauliflower at the last minute, along with the raisins, whose sweetness counters the anchovies beautifully.

Time 50m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 large cauliflower, cored, trimmed and separated into florets
1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil
salt & freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons sherry wine vinegar
4 anchovy fillets, minced
1/2 cup golden raisin
1/2 cup fresh parsley, chopped

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400°F
  • Put cauliflower in roasting pan, drizzle with 3 tablespoons oil and some salt and pepper; toss. Roast, turning once or twice, for 15 minutes or so, until cauliflower just starts to soften.
  • Meanwhile, make vinaigrette by combining remaining oil with vinegar, anchovies and a little salt and pepper; taste and adjust seasoning. Remove pan, drizzle cauliflower with 2 tablespoons of vinaigrette, and toss. Roast, turning once, until a thin-bladed knife pierces a piece with little resistance, for 15 minutes.
  • At last minute, put cauliflower in salad bowl and add raisins, parsley and remaining vinaigrette and toss. Taste and sprinkle with salt, if needed, and lots of pepper, then serve.
