A product that we find on the market in both autumn and winter. The cauliflower (in Sicily called broccoli) is a concentrate of health and is the protagonist of this recipe that is very easy to prepare and which has made "nothing is thrown away" its characteristic.





To bring this dish to the table, it takes very little time but the outcome è insured. A tasty alternative to the classic "pasta with Sicilian broccoli" of which we will soon give you the recipe.

Remember it is always there matter prima so when you choose cauliflower you prefer that of farmer or better, from the vegetable garden to the product of large-scale distribution.

Here is my recipe:

Ingredients for 4 people)

500 gr.di cauliflower

400 gr. Of biological rifles

garlic

extra virgin olive oil
