Salsa Verde with Steamed Cauliflower
I'm a fan of little sauces and side dishes. Browsing through Vegetables Every Day for a cauliflower recipe, I found one that called for steaming the cauliflower and then mixing it with salsa verde, which I'd never made before.
1/4 cup minced parsley
1 Tbs capers, drained and minced
8 green olives, pitted and minced (mine were stuffed with pimentos)
1 Tbs lemon juice
3 Tbs olive oil
salt and pepper to taste
1 head cauliflower, cut into florets
Mix together the sauce ingredients. Cut the cauliflower up and steam it or microwave it or cook it however you'd like.
I left the salsa verde in a small bowl at the table to be spooned onto the plate rather than tossing it with the cauliflower. The kids happily ate their cauliflower plain while I added the salsa to mine.
