How to Make Arrosto Insalata Di Cavolfiore Italian Cauliflower Salad
- Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C).
- Cut 1 large head of cauliflower into bite-sized florets. Halve 1 red bell pepper and 1 green bell pepper; remove seeds and chop into 1-inch pieces. Mince 2 cloves of garlic.
- In a large bowl, toss cauliflower, peppers, and garlic with 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Season generously with freshly ground black pepper and 1 teaspoon of dried Italian herbs (such as oregano, basil, and thyme). Add 1/2 teaspoon salt (or to taste, considering the saltiness of the anchovies, olives, and capers).
- Spread the mixture in a single layer on a large baking sheet. Roast for 20-25 minutes, or until cauliflower is tender and slightly browned.
- Let the roasted vegetables cool to room temperature (about 20 minutes).
- While the vegetables cool, roughly chop 1/4 cup oil-packed anchovy fillets, 1/2 cup Kalamata olives, and 2 tablespoons of capers.
- In a small bowl, whisk together 3 tablespoons of olive oil, 2 tablespoons of red wine vinegar, and 1/4 teaspoon of salt (or to taste).
- Add the chopped anchovies, olives, and capers to the cooled roasted vegetables. Pour the oil and vinegar dressing over the salad and gently toss to combine.
