I could have sworn I wrote this up, but apparently not. Back at the beginning of the winter share distribution I got a truck load of extra-awesome vegetables, including purple potatoes and cauliflower and a stalk of brussels sprouts. I combined all three in a dinner designed purely for my own amusement, because seriously?
How fun are those?
I took some beauty shots before getting down to the cooking:
As cool as the stalk of sprouts is, it does leave you with a slight problem:
Yes, that is the top (huge) sprout next to the one from the bottom of the stalk. Since the sizes were so wildly uneven, I decided to make Greta’s shaved oven-roasted sprouts. The cuisinart makes this WAY easier; use the blade that looks like this and attaches to that stalk thing to keep it at the top of the bowl:
12 seconds later this:
Became this:
I cut the cauliflower into florets to roast (at 400 or 425) alongside the shaved brussels sprouts, and tossed each with oil, salt and pepper.
Meanwhile I boiled the potatoes and tossed them (while hot) with a butter/vinegar/mustard dressing.
A few slices of grilled steak for protein and voila!
The leftovers were excellent for lunch the next day, and in daylight the colors were even crazier:
[FYI, purple potatoes and cauliflower taste essentially the same as normal potatoes and cauliflower, but they look purple. So: Worth it.]
