Cauliflower, along with broccoli and carrot, has to be one of my favourite things to roast in the oven and serve along with food. However, cauliflower is also excellent without cooking it as is.
Its crunchy and peppery flavour pairs perfectly with all types of food. I suggest serving this salad with Finnish Macaroni Casserole, or even with Irish Guinness Stew. It’s also great for your summer barbecue. As it has no salad leaves, it doesn’t wilt and lasts quite well in the fridge and on the table at a warm summer barbecue.
Preparing this dish is easy, you prepare your vegetables and sauce, and then just combine everything. The sauce combines everything together and highlights the bright and peppery notes of the cauliflower.
Let me know what you’d pair this salad with.
