Cauliflower Box

March 13, 2011 By Delia

 

Cauliflower or Kukkakaalilaatikko is a Finnish vegetable side dish with an interesting name. It is similar to an omelette and it is easy to make as well.

 

Ingredients:

1 cup beer

3 cups cubed rye bread

1 head cauliflower, cut into bite-sized florets

2 tablespoons butter

1 teaspoon caraway seed

3 cups extra-sharp cheddar cheese, grated

4 eggs

1 teaspoon dry mustard

1/2 teaspoon ground coriander

Ground black pepper

 

Preheat the oven at 350F.

One hour before cooking the cauliflower, pour the beer in a shallow bowl until it becomes flat.

Place the bread cubes on a tray and bake them for 15 minutes or until they are crisp. Do not brown.

In a skillet over medium heat, melt the butter and sauté the cauliflower and caraway seeds until they are almost tender.

In a big bowl, combine the bread, cheese and cauliflower. Mix well. Place the cauliflower mixture in a casserole dish.

In another bowl, combine mustard, coriander, eggs, pepper and beer. Mix well or blend it in a blender. Pour it into the casserole dish with the cauliflower mixture. Bake it for 30-40 minutes until the tops start turning golden brown. Serve warm.
