Marinaded Roasted Cauliflower




Ingredients:
1 head cauliflower, core removed
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
6 cloves of garlic, peeled whole clove
1/4 cup black olives, lightly crushed and pitted
1  teaspoon thyme
½ teaspoon rosemary
1 lemon, large diced without peel
1 teaspoon kosher salt
Freshly ground black pepper

Method:

Create marinade for the cauliflower by combining the olive oil, garlic, lemon, and olives in a saucepan, and heating it over low heat. Cook slowly for 20 minutes, stirring intermittently until everything has softened and broken down and is cooked. Mix in herbs and set aside.



Blanch cauliflower in highly salted boiling water for 3 minutes. Remove and let excess water drain. Marinate cauliflower with the marinade as they cool. Marinate for 1 hour.

Preheat an oven to 400°F.

Create a packet of tin foil placing the cauliflower in the center. Drizzle with any remaining marinate and season each with ½ teaspoon of salt and 8 or 10 turns of pepper. Close the packets tightly and put them in oven and bake them for about 30-35 minutes, until the cauliflower are tender, rotating them occasionally so they cook on all sides. (If a butter knife enters easily the cauliflower is finished cooking.)
