Recipe information

  • Yield

    Makes 2 servings

Ingredients

1/2 large head cauliflower, cut into 3/4-inch florets (about 4 cups)
4 tablespoons olive oil
1/4 cup chopped walnuts
1 to 1 1/2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice (to taste)
1/2 teaspoon Dijon mustard
2 cups small watercress sprigs
1 cup shredded radicchio

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Toss cauliflower with 2 tablespoons oil in a shallow baking pan and season with salt. Roast in middle of oven, stirring occasionally, until cauliflower is tender and begins to brown, about 15 minutes.

    Step 2

    Meanwhile, cook nuts in remaining 2 tablespoons oil in a small skillet over moderately low heat, stirring occasionally, until fragrant and a shade darker, about 5 minutes. Cool slightly in skillet.

    Step 3

    Stir together lemon juice and mustard in a large bowl. Add nuts with any oil from skillet, roasted cauliflower, watercress, radicchio, and salt and pepper to taste, then toss to coat.
