This elegant vegetarian side dish elevates the humble cauliflower into a sophisticated centrepiece. By steaming the cauliflower whole, you maintain its delicate texture and natural sweetness, providing the perfect canvas for a crunchy, savoury topping. The combination of earthy caraway seeds and toasted rye breadcrumbs offers a wonderful depth of flavour and a satisfying contrast to the tender vegetable base.
Perfect for a Sunday roast or as a light lunch, this cauliflower with rye crumbs is as nutritious as it is comforting. The use of day-old rye bread ensures the crumbs crisp up beautifully in the frying pan, while the nuttiness of the caraway adds a traditional European flair. Serve it alongside roasted root vegetables or a crisp green salad for a wholesome, homemade meal.

Ingredients for Cauliflower with Rye Crumbs
4 slices day-old rye bread, torn into 1-inch pieces
1 (2 1/2-to 3-pounds) head cauliflower
1 stick unsalted butter
1/2 teaspoons caraway seeds, lightly crushed
How to make Cauliflower with Rye Crumbs
Preheat oven to 177°C with rack in middle.
Pulse bread in a food processor to form medium-fine crumbs. Spread in a 4-sided sheet pan and toast in oven, stirring occasionally, until golden, 8 to 10 minutes. Cool.
Core cauliflower, keeping head intact, then cook in a large steamer rack over boiling water, covered, until tender, about 15 minutes. Transfer to a platter and keep warm, covered.
Melt butter in a large heavy skillet over medium heat and stir in caraway seeds, toasted crumbs, 1/2 teaspoons salt, and 1/4 teaspoons pepper. Cook, stirring, until hot, about 2 minutes. Spoon over cauliflower.
