Transform cauliflower into a delectable dish with crispy, creamy textures and garlicky breadcrumbs made from cauliflower leaves and stale bread for a delicious, waste-free meal.
Ingredients:
  • 100 g stale sourdough bread
  • 2 cloves of garlic
  • ½ a head of cauliflower (400g)
  • olive oil
  • 1 onion
  • 400 ml semi-skimmed milk
  • 300 g dried spaghetti
  • 70 g Cheddar cheese
Instructions:
  • Tear the bread into a food processor, then add peeled garlic and nice cauliflower leaves. Drizzle in ½ a tablespoon of olive oil and blitz into fine crumbs. Transfer to a non-stick frying pan on medium heat and cook for about 15 minutes until golden and crisp, stirring occasionally. Meanwhile, peel the onion, roughly chop it with the cauliflower, including the stalk, and set aside. Once the crumbs are crispy, transfer them to a bowl and pour milk into the same pan. Add the chopped vegetables, bring to a boil, then simmer on low heat. Cook the pasta according to package instructions. Just before the pasta is done, pour the cauliflower mixture into the food processor without washing it. Grate in the cheese, blitz until smooth, then season and return to the pan. Drain the pasta, saving a mugful of cooking water. Toss the pasta in the sauce, adding reserved water if needed. Serve with crispy crumbs sprinkled on top.
