1 head cauliflower, cut into small florets
1/4 cup olive oil
4 Thai bird chilies
2 anchovies
2 cloves of garlic, diced fine
8 sprigs of thyme
2 tsp of course ground peppercorns
1 red bell pepper, small dice
1 cup red onion, diced small
2 bay leaves
1/4 cup of white balsamic vinegar
1 tsp grated fresh ginger, a micro plane works best
fresh lemon juice and salt to taste
Blanch the cauliflower.
Saute whole chilies, garlic, anchovies in oil till the anchovies melt.
Add the thyme springs, peppercorns, bell pepper, red onion and bay leaves and saute till the onion cooks through.
Add the cauliflower and season mixture with salt.
Transfer mixture to a bowl and add white balsamic to the pan just used to make the cauliflower, reduce vinegar by half.
Once reduce add to the cauliflower along with the fresh ginger and lemon juice.
Adjust seasoning.

Never would have thought to make this- it looks delicious!
ReplyDeleteIt has some interesting ingredients- especially chilis, anchovies and ginger. It will be great fun to try!
sounds so interesting, different. I would think this keeps a while in the fridge?
ReplyDeleteThis was one of the best things about the picnic--getting to take home this little jar of pure deliciousness (actually, two jars, since my husband and I each took one)!
ReplyDeleteThe relish was fabulous on the burrata and tomato, as used during the Sunday Suppers picnic . . . but I can tell you that it's also very good with a couple of boiled eggs.
Yes, it does keep for a long time in the fridge. Not sure how long exactly, since my attempts to ration it were mostly failures. It is now gone, so I'm thrilled to have the recipe as a great memory of my day with the great folks of Sunday Suppers, and a gift that will keep on giving, as I'll use it repeatedly in my kitchen, I'm sure.
Thanks, Karen, Camille, and Co.
