Recipe's Ingredients

  Quantities for people → Recalculate
  • 10 coriander seeds
  • 10 black peppercorns
  • 2 sprigs fresh thyme
  • 1 clove garlic, slightly crushed
  • fine salt and freshly ground black pepper
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 3 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 600 g small cauliflower florets
  • 100 ml dry white wine
  • 150 ml white chicken stock
  • 100 ml heavy cream
  • Recipe preparation steps

  • 1
    Place the coriander seeds, peppercorns, thyme, and garlic clove on a small piece of cheesecloth. Gather up the loose ends and tie with a string. Set aside.
  • 2
    Heat the 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a small saucepan over low heat. Cook 450 grams of the cauliflower in the pan without browning for about 5 minutes. Add 1-and half tablespoons lemon juice, wine, and the bag of spices. Increase heat and reduce the liquid by half. Add 100 milliliters stock, bring to a boil, reduce heat, cover, and simmer until tender, about 25 minutes.
  • 3
    In the meantime, place the remaining cauliflower, cream, and the remaining stock in a separate saucepan. Cook over medium heat until soft, about 10 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Purée the mixture in a blender or by forcing it through a sieve. Set aside.
  • 4
    When cooked, drain the first saucepan of cauliflower, reserving the cooking liquid. Discard the spice bag. Combine the cooking liquid with the remaining lemon juice and olive oil. Bring to a boil and cook until a smooth sauce is formed. Season with salt and pepper. Combine with the drained cauliflower.
  • 5
    Divide the cauliflower pieces, along with their sauce, between glass serving dishes. Pour the purée over the cauliflower pieces. Chill before serving.
