Cauliflower with Roasted Tomato Sauce and Chorizo It’s worth the effort of roasting the tomatoes to make the sauce for this dish as it produces a wonderfully robust flavour – a delicious alternative to the well-known cauliflower cheese Preparation time: 15 minutes Cooking time: 25 minutes Ingredients (Serves 4) 1 large cauliflower (approx 1.1kg) cut into florets 500g (20oz) ripe tomatoes, quartered 1 onion, peeled and sliced 1 tablesthingy chopped fresh thyme 1 tablesthingy olive oil 250ml (8 1/2fl oz) hot vegetable stock 200g (8oz) cooked chorizo, sliced 1 tablesthingy freshly grated Parmesan Salt and freshly ground black pepper
Agalinks tip If you’re short of time, you can use a ready made tomato sauce. For a vegetarian alternative, replace the chorizo with 250g (10oz) of cup mushrooms, sliced and fried. Method Preheat the oven to 200ºC, gas mark 6. Place the tomatoes in a single layer in a roasting tin, with the onion and thyme, season well and drizzle with the oil. Roast them for 15 minutes until the tomatoes are soft. Pour the hot stock over the tomatoes and return them to the oven for a further 10 minutes.
Cook the cauliflower florets in boiling salted water for 6-8 minutes until tender. Drain well, place in an ovenproof dish and keep them warm.
Blend the tomatoes and stock in a liquidiser or food processor until smooth – you may have to do this in 2 batches. Then add the slices of chorizo to the cauliflower, pour over the tomato sauce and scatter with the Parmesan.
