Ingredients
- 1 cauliflower head
- 2 olive oil or butter; 3 tbsp
- 1/4 cup milk
Instructions
- Cut your cauliflower into bite-sized florets. Then, you need to bring a large pot of water to a boil. Once boiling, add cauliflower florets and cook for 5 – 6 minutes. Larger florets will need a longer cooking time.
- Drain the cauliflower and let it sit on a kitchen towel for about 10-15 minutes. You need to handle it for the next step and don’t want to burn your hands.
- Place the drained cauliflower into a kitchen towel and ring out AS MUCH water as you POSSIBLY can.
- Add rung-out cauliflower to food processor with the milk, either olive oil or butter and any additional ingredients. Blend until smooth and creamy. Season to taste. Serve.
