This was quite good, but unlike the previous reviewers, I didn't think it was great. I may have been spoiled by the Smitten Kitchen roasted cauliflower tart: http://www.cookbooker.com/recipe/2227/cauliflower-and-carmelized-onion-tart, which is amazing.

Delicious! This recipe isn't difficult, but it does take a long time. The grated potato and onion crust was pure genius, but it takes 40 minutes to bake. I agree with Rachel that giving the cauliflower enough time to saute is very important.

After adding the vegetables, this pie requires an additional 40 minutes to bake. So plan ahead - for me it was just shy of 2 hours, start to finish.

I used smoked paprika on top - that gave it a bit more wow.
