Roasted Cauliflower Pasta

As a quick dinner the other night, using Donna Hay for inspiration, we made Roasted Cauliflower Pasta.





To create this dish:

1 head cauliflower, chopped into florets
pasta, I often use fresh lasagne sheets and chop then up
2 tbsp philly cream cheese
1-2 tsp cumin
1-2 tsp coriander
1/2 tsp chilli flakes
egg, lightly beaten
salt and pepper
1 tbsp olive oil
pine nuts, lightly toasted
lemon, a dash of juice
1-2 cloves garlic, chopped finely
parmesan, shaved to serve

Crush the cumin, coriander and chilli in a mortar and pestal until combine
Toss the cauliflower with the herbs, salt, pepper and oil
Place on a roasting try and bake until cooked through and slightly crunchy
Cook pasta in salted water
In a frying pan, add the pasta with a dash of oil, and the egg
Then add the philly cream cheese to make a sauce
Top with cauliflower mixture and squeeze over a bit of lemon juice

Enjoy.
