Hi 
Hope you had a wonderful weekend.
Today I have 5 star secret recipe from Ad Hoc in Napa, California.
This American restaurant is known for their great food and the best service around. 
Ad Hoc is the creation of Chef Thomas Keller and features a prix fixe menu that changes daily.
This recipe for rice with roasted cauliflower is deceptively simple and contains layers of delicious flavors. Roasting the cauliflower concentrates the vegetable's flavor and softens it to a buttery tenderness. 
 The cauliflower is tossed with chili spiced rice and topped with fresh green onion to create perfect harmony in every bite.
Enjoy!

Ad Hoc's Rice with Roasted Cauliflower
Fun & Info @ Keralites.net1/2 head white cauliflower, cut into florets
2 tablespoons canola oil Salt Pepper Pinch of curry powder
6 cups water
1 cup Carolina, or long grain, rice
1 teaspoon red chili flakes
2 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil
2 tablespoons butter, at room temperature
1/4 cup chopped green onions
 
Heat the oven to 400 degrees.
In a large bowl, toss the cauliflower with the canola oil and season with one-fourth teaspoon salt and a pinch of pepper, or to taste.
Place the cauliflower in a roasting pan (reserve the bowl) and roast until the cauliflower is a deep brown and tender throughout when pierced with a knife,
20 to 25 minutes, tossing every few minutes for even coloring and cooking.
Remove the cauliflower from the oven and reduce the oven temperature to 250 degrees.
 
While the cauliflower is roasting, cook the rice:
 In a large saucepan, add the water and a generous pinch of salt and bring to a boil over high heat.
Stir in the rice and chili flakes and reduce the heat to a gentle simmer.
Cook the rice just until tender, about 15 minutes.
Drain the rice well, then spread the rice in a thin shallow layer in a large baking dish.
Place the rice in the oven to dry out for 5 minutes.
 Remove, then stir in the olive oil.
Taste and adjust seasoning as desired with salt and pepper.
Place the cauliflower back in the bowl and toss with the curry powder.
 Taste and season, if desired, with additional salt and pepper.
Gently stir in the warmed rice and butter, tossing until the butter is melted and evenly coats the rice and cauliflower.
Stir in the green onions and serve immediately.
Serves 8-10
