Recipe Instructions

Step 1
Place a steamer insert into a pot and fill with water to just below the bottom of the steamer. Bring water to a boil. Place cauliflower in the insert, drizzle with olive oil, and spread olives around it; spread parsley and garlic on top and season with salt.
Step 2
Cover and cook over medium to low heat until a skewer easily pierces the cauliflower and the center is soft, 15 to 20 minutes. Add a couple of tablespoons of water during cooking to avoid burning.

Ingredients

  • salt to taste
  • 1 teaspoon minced garlic
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil, or as needed
  • 2 tablespoons chopped flat-leaf (Italian) parsley
  • 8 ounces pitted green olives
  • 1 medium head cauliflower, leaves removed and base trimmed
