Roasting thick cauliflower "steaks" creates a unique side dish or vegetarian entree. Chimichurri is a classic Argentinian condiment for meat but it pairs perfectly with this meat stand-in.

Roasted Cauliflower
1 medium head cauliflower
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 1/2 tablespoon butter, divided
salt and pepper
Chimichurri Sauce
1 tablespoon capers
1/4 cup minced parsley
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 pinch chili flakes
2 teaspoons red wine vinegar
1/2 cup olive oil
salt and pepper
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
For the cauliflower: Cut two thick slices from the center of the cauliflower, each 1 inch thick. Save the remainder to of the head for another use.
Heat the olive oil and 1 tablespoon of the butter over a medium high heat in an oven-proof saute pan. Season the cauliflower steaks on both sides with salt and pepper. When butter is melted, place steaks in the pan. Let sit for about two minutes until browned.
Gently flip both steaks to the second side and add the remaining butter. After browned on the second side, place the saute pan in the oven. Roast for 10-12 minutes until a paring knife easily pierces the stem.
While cauliflower is roasting, make the chimichurri. Soak the capers in cold water for 5 minutes. Drain capers and mince finely.
In a small bowl combine the parsley, garlic, oregano, chili flakes, red wine vinegar, olive oil and drained capers. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
Transfer the roasted cauliflower to individual serving plates. Top with a small pile of the chimichurri and drizzle a bit around the plate.

The name, vodka, comes from the Russian phrase zhiznennaia voda, or "water of life". It can be made from everything from potatoes to beets. It's considered to be fairly flavorless which makes it a great liquor for mixed drinks.
