Cooked sunny side up or over easy, the egg's yolk becomes a rich sauce for the cauliflower.

Neither my husband or I was fond of this. I am not a big fan of anchovies but have been trying to re-asses. That was all I tasted. My husband on the other hand was fine with the anchovies but was overwhelmed by the fresh ginger. This just didn't suit either of our tastes.

Very good, easy dinner option. Added a second egg for additional protein. Great meatless option full of flavor.

Didn't feel like cooking last night but had a beautiful head of cauliflower in the fridge so I tried the recipe. So good. Who knew cauliflower could make a dinner ? The egg adds so much; a nice little hit of protein. Delicious & satisfying.
