Where’s the full recipe - why can I only see the ingredients?

Always check the publication for a full list of ingredients. An Eat Your Books index lists the main ingredients and does not include 'store-cupboard ingredients' (salt, pepper, oil, flour, etc.) - unless called for in significant quantity.

    Agree with others that this cries out for some garlic.

    Tasty, and I agree that garlic might be a nice addition.

    This turned out far better than I was anticipating. Cauliflower is first cooked in boiling, salted water, and then braised with onions (cooked a bit before the cauliflower is added), sun-dried tomato paste (I only had half of what I needed, so added oil-packed sun-dried tomatoes to round it out), raisins (golden in my case), and pine-nuts until it becomes a "paste." Mine never quite reached "paste" consistency, but still made for a flavorful topping for the (recommended) bucatini pasta. If I could do anything differently, I would have thrown in some garlic, but otherwise this was very good indeed.
