Roasted Cauliflower And Barley Salad With Lemon Caesar Dressing
- 1 head cauliflower
- 1 teaspoon sugar
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt (plus a pinch for the dressing)
- 1/4 cup plus 2 tsp olive oil divided
- 8 ounces uncooked barley (I used parcooked)
- 1 egg yolk
- 1 clove garlic
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 1/4 cup finely grated parmesan
- 1 teaspoon pepper
- 1 anchovy fillet
- 4 sprigs thyme, leaves picked, finely chopped
- 1/2 cup pine nutsPreheat the oven to 400.
- Preheat the oven to 400.
- Cut up the cauliflower into florets and spread them on a cookie sheet lined with foil.
- Sprinkle the salt, sugar and drizzle the olive oil onto the cauliflower
- Roast the cauliflower until golden, approximately 25-30 minutes
- On a separate baking sheet, roast the pine nuts for 5 minutes at 400 when the cauliflower is almost done.
- Cook the barley in salted boiling water according to instructions. (I bought parboiled barley and cooked for 12 minutes). Drain when tender
- To make the dressing, combine egg yolk, garlic, lemon juice, pepper, pinch of salt and anchovy in a blender
- Add the oil slowly and then the parmesan. Blend for 1 minute until creamy.
- While the barley, pine nuts and cauliflower are still warm, combine all ingredients in a bowl including the thyme. The warmth of the salad should cook the egg through.
