MARINATED CAULIFLOWER AND CARROTS WITH MINT



Marinated Cauliflower and Carrots With Mint image

This is an elaboration of one of my favorite carrot dishes. That dish couldn't be simpler - steamed carrots tossed with sherry vinegar, olive oil, salt and fresh mint. It is good at room temperature or warm, as a starter or a side dish. I added steamed cauliflower to the mix but made no other changes to the formula. The cauliflower, which always loves a vinegar marinade, is a wonderful addition, very compatible with the carrots and pretty, too. The dish is great for a buffet as it only gets better as it sits. The dish is particularly beautiful if you use different colored carrots.
