Cauliflower with jalapeño peppers is a bold combination of the softness of baked cauliflower and the spiciness of hot pepper. This recipe draws inspiration from European cuisine but adds a touch of Latin American passion thanks to the jalapeño. Baking the cauliflower to a golden crust reveals its sweet flavor, harmoniously complemented by the freshness of red onion and the spiciness of cilantro. The dish is perfect as a light appetizer or side dish, adding a vibrant accent to any table. It is especially fitting for summer parties when something fresh, spicy, and unusual is desired. Drizzled with olive oil and seasoned with salt and black pepper, it presents a balance of flavors and textures that surprises and impresses.
