Ingredients
Cauliflower-Mortadella Bake
- Ingredients
- ½ head Cauliflower (about 750 g)
- salt
- 100 grams Mortadella
- 1 Tbsp Caper
- 125 grams Mascarpone
- 2 eggs
- peppers
- lemon juice
- oregano
- 30 grams Pine nuts
- 1 slice Toast
- 30 grams Parmesan
Rinse the cauliflower and divide into florets. Cook in a pot of boiling salted water for 5 minutes. Drain, rinse with cold water and drain again.
Cut the mortadella into small cubes. Finely chop half the capers. In a bowl, whisk the mascarpone with 1 whole egg and 1 egg yolk. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Stir in the chopped capers and lemon juice.
Finely grate the Parmesan. Finely crumble the toast.
In a bowl, beat the remaining egg whites with the pine nuts, Parmesan and breadcrumbs. Season with salt to taste.
Preheat the oven to 220°C (approximately 340°F). Grease a baking dish. Pour in the mascarpone mixture. Place the cauliflower, mortadella and oregano on top. Pour the egg white mixture over the cauliflower. Bake on the middle rack until golden brown, about 20 minutes. Serve garnished with fresh oregano if desired.
