Cauliflower With Fresh Cilantro

From the cookbook Arabian Delights. This is a Saudi Arabian dish known as qarnabeed bil kuzbara. The recipe calls for Middle Eastern (also known as Turkish) red pepper and if you can get it then you are very lucky indeed. If not, substitute 3 parts paprika to 1 part cayenne. I think this would taste wonderful with either broccoflower or romanesco instead of cauliflower. Very spicy!

SERVES 4 (change servings and units)

Ingredients

Directions

  1. 1
    In a large pot steam the cauliflower in salted water for about 6-7 minutes. Drain well.
  2. 2
    In saute pan, heat the olive oil on medium-high and add the steamed cauliflower, garlic, and chili. Stir fry for about 2-3 minutes being careful not to burn. Add the scallions, the cilantro leaves and the Middle Eastern red pepper. Stir in well. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  3. 3
    NOTE: I've never used Middle Eastern red pepper. I have been informed by a kind Zaar member that harissa can be used for the Middle Eastern Pepper. Thanks, FiFi! cg 02-06-06.

Easy to prepare... I was being lazy so I used garlic powder instead of fresh garlic. I substituted onions for the scallions & harissa for the pepper & chili. I also added about a tablespoon of lemon juice to the mix. I made this for my husband & he rated it 4 stars. I asked for a description to put on the review & the only comment I could get out of him was "spicy & it has a good taste". :P

    Great recipe! This was easy to make and the right amount of heat for the kids and myself. I used my Cuisinart Turbo Convection Steamer to steam the cauliflower. I wish I would have sauteed the next three veggies before adding the cauliflour, as it was harder to stir around. I made this for the NAME Tag Game 2006

    Yummy! This was an awesome dish! I too sprinkled a tiny bit of cayenne before serving, as I had no middle eastern peppers. We really enjoyed the spicy, garlicky flavour. Thanks for posting!
