From Food & Wine, Sept. 2004. I hope to make this soon now that spinach is safe again.
Ingredients:
3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1/4 lb pancetta, thinly sliced, finely chopped
1 1/4 lbs cauliflower, cored and cut into small florets
1 small onion, finely chopped
1 tablespoon dill, coarsely chopped
1 bay leaf
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
salt & freshly ground black pepper
5 ounces baby spinach
Directions:
1. In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoons oil.
2. Add the pancetta and cook over moderate heat until the fat has been rendered, about 4 minutes.
3. Stir in the cauliflower, onion, dill and bay leaf.
4. Cover and cook, stirring occasionally for 15 minutes. The cauliflower should be tender and browned.
5. In a large bowl, mix the lemon juice with the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil.
6. Season with salt and pepper.
7. Add the cauliflower and the spinach, toss and serve.
