How to cook deliciously - Baked Shells with Cauliflower and Taleggio

1. Stage

Preheat oven to 450 degrees F. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and fill a large bowl with cold water. Boil cauliflower until tender, 5 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer cauliflower to cold water and let cool slightly. Drain and pat dry; keep cooking water hot.

2. Stage

In a large, deep skillet, melt butter in olive oil. Add onion, garlic, and rosemary, season with salt and pepper and cook over moderate heat until softened, about 3 minutes. Add cauliflower and cook over moderate heat, stirring occasionally, until browned in spots, about 8 minutes. Add wine and boil until evaporated. Remove skillet from heat and stir in cream, 1 cup of Parmigiano and Taleggio.

3. Stage

Return the water to a boil and add the pasta. Cook until al dente. Drain the pasta and return it to the pot. Scrape the cauliflower and cheese sauce into the pasta and toss well. Spread half of the pasta into a 3-quart baking dish and top with 2 tablespoons of the bread crumbs. Top with the remaining pasta, 2 tablespoons of bread crumbs and 1/2 cup of Parmigiano.

4. Stage

Bake the pasta for about 20 minutes, until the sauce is bubbling and the top is golden and crisp. Let stand for 10 minutes before serving. Looking for more dinner options? Check out our pork chop recipes, chicken recipes, and potato recipes.
