Roasted green cauliflower salad with onions, raisins and almonds
Report
This roasted green cauliflower salad has many layers of flavour; from the caramelized cauliflower, to the acidic red onion, the sweet raisins and crunchy almonds all join together to make one special salad. If you don't have green cauliflower, feel free to substitute regular cauliflower or broccoli.

Ingredients
- 1 green cauliflower if you can't find green cauliflower, use regular white cauliflower, or even a few heads of broccoli, head
- 3 TBs almonds slivered or chopped
- ¼ TB raisins
- ½ red onion chopped finely, small
- DRESSING:
- 2 TBs olive oil
- 2 TBs lemon juice or white wine vinegar
- 1 teaspoon thyme fresh or dry
- salt to taste after dressing
- black pepper to taste after dressing
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375F. Line a baking sheet with tinfoil.
- Cut green cauliflower into florets. Do not discard the stem - it can also be chopped up and added to the florets. Arrange florets on baking sheet, and drizzle with a bit of olive oil and sprinkle with salt. Bake for 20 mins, and then switch your oven to grill/broil and bake an additional 10 minutes on this setting, until the cauliflower florets just brown around the edges.
- Remove from oven and transfer cauliflower florets to a mixing bowl. Add almonds, raisins, and chopped red onion. Mix dressing in a separate jar, shake or stir vigorously to emulsify, and drizzle on salad. Mix thoroughly with thongs, serving spoons or your hands, and taste before adding salt, pepper, or a bit more lemon juice.
- The salad can be eaten immediately, though I find it gets even better after marinating in its juice a bit (it can be kept in the fridge for a few days).
