Servings: 4
Start to finish: 45 minutes
1 head broccoflower, cut into 1-inch florets
8 ounces shiitake or other type of mushrooms, wiped, stemmed and halved
3 tablespoons olive oil
6 cloves garlic, peeled and smashed
2 medium sprigs rosemary, cut into 2-inch pieces
1 teaspoon kosher salt, plus more to taste
1 tablespoon maple syrup
2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice
1 tablespoon white wine vinegar
Freshly ground black pepper to taste
Preheat the oven to 400 F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with aluminum foil, and lightly spray with nonstick spray (or lightly oil the foil). Distribute the broccoflower and shiitake mushrooms on the baking sheet. Drizzle with the olive oil. Add the garlic and rosemary sprigs, and sprinkle with the 1 teaspoon salt. Use your hands to combine everything well, then spread the vegetables back over the baking sheet so they are in a single layer. Roast for about 25 minutes, until the vegetables are just tender, and lightly browned in spots.
While the mixture is in the oven, in a small bowl or container mix together the maple syrup, lemon juice and vinegar.
Remove the rosemary sprigs and garlic cloves from the cooked vegetables and sprinkle the maple syrup mixture over the vegetables; toss to coat. Taste and season with salt and pepper if needed. Spoon the vegetables into a serving dish and serve hot or warm.
