Robyns Parmesan Cauliflower Dip Food

CAULIFLOWER PARMESAN

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F and line a plate with paper towels.
• Pull off the leaves from the base of the cauliflower and cut off the stem, but do not cut out the core. Slice the cauliflower into 1-inch thick slices, aiming for about 3 nice "steaks" from the center. The rest will break into smaller florets, and that is okay.
• Mix the flour with 1 teaspoon salt in a shallow bowl or pie plate. Put the eggs in another shallow bowl and panko in a third shallow bowl.
• Add 1/4 inch olive oil to a large skillet and heat over medium-high heat until shimmering.
• Working with the larger pieces first, add the cauliflower to the flour and turn to coat. Shake off the excess, then dip in the egg to coat. Let the excess egg drip off, then coat thoroughly in the panko. Fry the cauliflower in batches to avoid overcrowding, turning once, until golden brown on both sides, 6 to 8 minutes total. Transfer to the lined plate to drain and sprinkle with salt. Repeat with the remaining smaller pieces of cauliflower (leave out any tiny crumbly pieces).
• Spread 1 cup marinara sauce on the bottom of a 9-by-13-inch baking dish. Arrange the fried cauliflower on top, then spoon 1 cup of the sauce on top of the cauliflower. Arrange the mozzarella over the sauce, then spoon the remaining 1/2 cup marinara over the top. Sprinkle with the Parmesan and bake until bubbling and lightly browned in spots, about 35 minutes. Sprinkle with the basil and serve.

PARMESAN-ROASTED CAULIFLOWER

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
• Remove the outer green leaves from the cauliflower and cut the head into florets, discarding the stems. Place the florets on a sheet pan. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle generously with salt and pepper. Toss well. Bake for 30 minutes, tossing once, until the cauliflower is tender and starts to brown. Sprinkle with the Parmesan and Gruyere and bake for 1 to 2 more minutes, just until the cheese melts. Season to taste and serve hot or warm.

CAULIFLOWER DIP

Steps:

• Begin by gathering and prepping all of your ingredients according to the ingredient list above to have ready and organized for use.
• Preheat the oven to 400°, and line a baking sheet with foil. Also, lightly mist a small/medium-sized baking dish with cooking spray.
• Cut the tops off of the heads of garlic, and place each of the heads onto a small square of foil. Drizzle with a touch of olive oil, wrap tightly, and place into the hot oven directly onto the wire rack.
• Next, toss the cauliflower florets with a generous drizzle of the olive oil, a good pinch of salt, a pinch of the black pepper, a pinch of the cayenne pepper, about 1/4 teaspoon of the paprika, and the onion and garlic granules, and turn it out onto the foil-lined baking sheet.
• Place the baking sheet into the oven next to the foil-wrapped garlic roughly 10 minutes after the garlic was put in, and roast together for 30 minutes more, until cauliflower is slightly charred and soft, and garlic is soft and aromatic.
• Remove the cauliflower and garlic heads from the oven, and keep the oven on.
• Unwrap the garlic heads from the foil to allow them to cool to room temp before squeezing them from their papers and smashing them into a paste with a knife or fork. Allow the cauliflower florets to cool as well, and then very finely chop them. Set both aside for a moment while you prepare the base of the dip.
• In a large bowl, add the softened cream cheese, the sour cream, the mayo, the grated parmesan, 1/2 cup of the shredded cheddar/gruyere blend, the parsley, lemon zest, herbes de Provence, the white wine, another good pinch of salt (about 3/4 teaspoon), and another pinch of cayenne pepper, and fold those ingredients together until fairly smooth and well combined.
• Next, add in the chopped baby spinach, the chopped cauliflower and the roasted garlic paste, and fold those in until well incorporated.
• Turn the mixture out into the prepared baking dish, smooth the top out a bit, and sprinkle over the remainder of the shredded cheddar/gruyere cheese.
• Sprinkle another little pinch of the herbes de Provence and paprika over the cheese, and bake in the oven for about 20-22 minutes, or until golden and bubbly. To finish, sprinkle with a touch of the chopped parsley, and serve hot with corn chips or choice of accompaniment.
