Ingredients

Servings
  • 6 cups cauliflower about 24 ounces or 1 large head, florets
  • 2 cloves garlic smashed and peeled
  • ¾ teaspoon kosher salt divided
  • 2 tablespoons butter unsalted
  • ¼ cup Greek yogurt or sour cream, full-fat
  • 2 tablespoons milk or milk of choice, plus additional as needed, nonfat
  • ¼ cup Parmesan Cheese finely grated
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper freshly ground
  • chives optional for serving, chopped fresh

Instructions

  1. Place the cauliflower and garlic in a medium saucepan and add enough cold water to cover it. Add ¼ teaspoon of the salt, then bring to a boil over high heat. Let boil until the cauliflower is fork-tender, about 6 minutes.
  2. Drain the cauliflower and garlic in a colander, shake them very dry, then transfer to a food processor fitted with a steel blade (or return to the pot and puree with an immersion blender—this is a little tricky but will do the job). Add the yogurt, milk, Parmesan, pepper, and remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt.
  3. Puree until the cauliflower is smooth and creamy, stopping to scrape down the bowl as needed. If it is thicker than you would like, add more milk 1 tablespoon at a time, until your desired consistency is reached. Taste and adjust seasoning as desired. Serve immediately or transfer to a heatproof bowl and keep warm over a pan of simmering water. Top with fresh chives.

Notes

  • TO STORE: Refrigerate mashed cauliflower in an airtight storage container for up to 3 days. 
  • TO REHEAT: Gently rewarm leftovers in a pot on the stovetop over medium-low heat, adding splashes of milk as needed. You can also reheat this dish in the microwave.
  • TO FREEZE: Freeze cauliflower mashed potatoes in an airtight freezer-safe storage container for up to 3 months. Let thaw overnight in the refrigerator before reheating.
