Cauliflower is a much-neglected vegetable, but this quick hit of vital nutrition (the health benefits of brassicas like cauliflower, cabbage and broccoli are well documented) makes a simple side dish, and the combination of florets and flavorful ingredients such as garlic and shallots enhances the subtle taste. Look for the green, spiraled Romanesco variety for some visual excitement, and if you have time, pop the cauliflower onto an oven sheet with a light drizzle of oil and roast for 20 minutes before adding to the dish; you’ll have a new appreciation for this versatile ingredient.
