How to Make Rakott Karfiol Layered Cauliflower

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Cut the cauliflower into bite-sized florets. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the cauliflower and cook until tender-crisp, about 8-10 minutes. Drain well and set aside.

  4. In a greased 9x13 inch casserole dish, spread a thin layer of butter (approximately 1 tablespoon).
  5. Layer half of the cooked cauliflower over the butter.
  6. Spread half of the sour cream mixture over the cauliflower.
  7. Dot with half of the remaining butter (approximately 1 tablespoon).
  8. Repeat layers with the remaining cauliflower, sour cream mixture, and butter.
  9. The top layer should be the sour cream mixture.
  10. Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until the sour cream is lightly browned and bubbly and the cauliflower is tender.
  11. Let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy!
