About me: I love cooking, I love eating, I love discovering new recipes. I have so many cookbooks I sometimes lose track of which recipe is where - though this site helps a bit. I have gone low-carb in 2010, so that's different recipes to explore again. This also means I may not agree with my own reviews anymore if they were written in 2009 or before. ------------------ I have a lovely husband and ten-year old twins who also love eating. ----------------- You can also find me on LibraryThing, BookMooch and EatYourBooks, using the same handle.

A basic recipe, but quite good. Cauliflower does well in a frittata.

The recipe says to cook the cauliflower until the butter has been absorbed. After about 10 minutes I still saw no sign of this and proceeded with the rest of the recipe, with good results. I do think halving the amount of butter won't do any harm.

My husband thought this was very good, I thought it could have used a bit more anchovies.
Nice and simple.
