Elotes-Style Cauliflower




Ingredients:
1 medium-large caput cauliflower, broken into florets
1/4 loving cup mayonnaise
three tablespoons Mexican crema or sour cream
1 tablespoon TAJÍN seasoning
1/3 loving cup finely crumbled Cotija cheese
1/4 loving cup chopped greenish onion (green parts only)
lime wedges

Directions:
Preheat oven to 375. Line a baking sheet amongst foil. Lightly coat the cauliflower inwards olive crude oil in addition to adapt inwards a unmarried layer on the baking sheet. Roast thirty minutes or until lightly browned in addition to fork-tender. Allow to cool slightly.

Meanwhile, stir together mayonnaise, sour cream, cheese, TAJÍN seasoning, in addition to greenish onion inwards a large bowl until good combined. Pour over the cauliflower in addition to stir to evenly distribute. Divide into bowls. Sprinkle to a greater extent than TAJÍN seasoning in addition to Cotija on overstep equally desired. Serve amongst lime wedges.



My thoughts:
Mexican street corn aka elotes, in addition to its salad cousin, esquites, is corn-on-the-cob (or off the cob for esquites) spread amongst mayo, Cotija cheese, lime in addition to chile powder. I honey it but corn isn't inwards flavor now. I had cauliflower inwards my cart when I came across a huge purse of crumbled Cotija (at Aldi of all places) in addition to nosotros idea it would move fun to clothes upwards roasted cauliflower elotes style.

When I've made it inwards the past, I've used ancho, chipotle or fifty-fifty only chili pulverisation but I had some
TAJÍN seasoning leftover from around other recipe in addition to used that instead. Traditionally used on fruit, TAJÍN seasoning is a mix of chile peppers, lime, in addition to salt, precisely the same ingredients yous involve to brand elotes then it seemed similar a no-brainer to operate that on my elotes inspired cauliflower. If yous don't bring it, upwards the lime juice, add together a sprinkle of common salt in addition to sub inwards your favorite chile powder.

I honey how it came out, cauliflower tin move a fight of a blank sheet then the flavors actually stood out in addition to I honey the squirt of fresh lime. It was spicy, creamy in addition to tart all at once. An inspired side dish equally nosotros motion towards warmer weather.
