Buffalo Cauliflower
- 1 head cauliflower, leaves removed
- 2 tablespoons plus 1 teaspoon canola oil
- Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
- 1/2 cup hot sauce, such as Frank's Red Hot sauce
- 1/2 cup Sriracha (Asian chile sauce)
- 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
- 1 tablespoon crumbled blue cheese or more to taste
- 1 large rimmed baking sheet
- Arrange a rack in the middle of the oven and preheat to 375u0b0F.
- Cut the stalk end off the cauliflower so that the head sits flat and place it on a large baking sheet. Rub 2 tablespoons of the canola oil all over the cauliflower, season to taste with salt and pepper, and roast until the outside starts to brown, about 30 minutes.
- Transfer the cauliflower to a cutting board and let cool. Once the cauliflower is cool enough to handle, cut or break it into small florets. DO AHEAD:
- In a medium saucepan over moderate heat, bring the hot sauce and Sriracha to a boil. Reduce the heat to a simmer then slowly whisk in the butter until fully incorporated, about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and let cool. DO AHEAD:
- In a large, deep saute pan over moderate heat, warm the remaining 1 teaspoon canola oil. Add the cauliflower florets, season to taste with salt and pepper, and saute until heated through, about 5 minutes. Add enough Buffalo sauce to coat the cauliflower and continue sauteing until both the cauliflower and the sauce are hot, about 5 minutes. Transfer the cauliflower to a platter and garnish with the crumbled blue cheese.
