Browned Butter Roasted Cauliflower Recipe

By Jake57

The briny capers, lemon juice and sweet raisins together allow the caramelized, nutty cauliflower to shine.

Ingredients

• 6 garlic cloves, unpeeled
• 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 1 medium head cauliflower, broken into florets
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 teaspoon pepper
• 1/4 cup golden raisins
• 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
• 1 tablespoon capers, drained and coarsely chopped
• 2 teaspoons lemon juice

Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 400°. Cut stem ends off unpeeled garlic cloves. Wrap cloves in a piece of foil. Bake 25-30 minutes or until cloves are soft. Unwrap and cool to room temperature. Squeeze garlic from skins. Mash with a fork.

Meanwhile, in a small heavy saucepan, melt butter over medium heat. Heat 5-7 minutes or until golden brown, stirring constantly. Remove from heat.

Place cauliflower in a greased 15x10x1-in. baking pan. Drizzle with browned butter; sprinkle with salt and pepper. Toss to coat. Roast 15-20 minutes or until cauliflower is golden brown and tender.

Transfer to a bowl. Add remaining ingredients and roasted garlic; toss to combine.
