  1. Wash and dry the cauliflower, spinach and raisins. Dry the almonds in a hot frying pan without adding oil, cool and chop. Instead of whole almonds, you can take almond petals or any other nuts. Turn on the oven to warm up to 180 degrees.


    Dissassemble cauliflower into small florets. Peel onion and cut into thin half-rings. Put cauliflower and onion half rings in a baking dish. Sprinkle with 1 tablespoon of olive oil, add paprika, curry and salt to taste. Mix well. Bake in a preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, occasionally turning the cabbage blossoms to bake evenly.

Tips and Tricks for Cauliflower with Spinach and Almonds Recipe

To make this recipe extra special, be sure to choose fresh and high-quality ingredients. When selecting cauliflower, look for heads that are firm and have tightly closed florets. The spinach should be fresh and brightly colored, with no yellowing or wilting leaves. The almonds should be raw and unsalted to ensure that the flavor is not overpowering.

When baking the cauliflower, be sure to turn the florets occasionally to ensure that they cook evenly. Don't overcook the cauliflower, as it will become mushy and lose its flavor.

When preparing the spinach and raisins, be careful not to overcook them. A quick sautГ© in olive oil is all that is needed to bring out their flavors and create a delicious base for the dish.

Tips for presenting the dish

This dish looks stunning when arranged on a large platter. Start by placing the baked cauliflower in the center, then arrange the sautГ©ed spinach and raisin mixture around it. Finally, sprinkle the chopped almonds over the top, creating a beautiful contrast of colors and textures.

This recipe is perfect for serving as a side dish at a dinner party, or as a healthy main course for a weekday dinner. Enjoy the creamy texture of the cauliflower, the slightly sweet taste of the raisins, and the crunch of the almonds in every bite.
