Pasta with Cauliflower
I got this recipe from a friend sometime in 2024, I don't remember exactly who though. I just wrote it down with
the intention to try it someday, and honestly it sounds so simple and yummy, that day might come quick.
Ingredients
1 lb. short pasta (fusilli or mezze-penne)
1.5 lb. cauliflower
3 garlic cloves
2 Tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil
Fresh parsley
Red pepper flakes
Pecorino, grated
Salt
Pepper
Process
Clean the cauliflower and cut it into florets.
Cook until al dente in plenty of salted water. Once cooked, remove the cauliflower with a slotted spoon
and set aside.
Cook the pasta in the same water.
In the meantime, fry the garlic cloves in a large pan with red pepper flakes to taste.
Add the cauliflower florets and al dente pasta. Cook for two minutes.
Add pepper, pecorino cheese, chopped parsley, and salt to taste. Stir to combine and serve.
