Cauliflower with Toasted Almonds


Ingredients

1 head cauliflower, cut into florets
¼ cup sliced almonds
2 whole cloves garlic, peeled
3 tbsp olive oil
salt and fresh ground pepper to taste


Directions

Steam or boil cauliflower until tender 6-8 minutes.
Infuse oil with almonds and garlic by heating olive oil, almond slices and garlic over medium high heat just until almonds begin to change color. The almonds change very quickly so you must keep a close eye on them. Add broccoli immediately and toss to coat. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
