Ingredients
- 1 large head cauliflower 6 cups florets
- 1 large head of garlic 3-4 cloves of roasted garlic is used in the recipe
- 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 1-3 tablespoons milk substitute with cauliflower cooked water
- ¼ cup sour cream
- ¼ cup parmesan
- salt and pepper to taste
- 2 teaspoons fresh thyme
Instructions
- Slice off the back end of the garlic head. Place it on aluminum foil. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle salt over the top. Cover the foil tightly and roast the garlic head in preheated oven at 400F for 40-50 minutes.
- Remove the garlic head from the oven, and allow it to cool. Unwrap aluminum foil, squeeze out garlic flesh by pressing the head or scoop it off from its skin using a spoon.
- Trim off the green stem and core of the cauliflower. Cut cauliflower into florets.
- Add cauliflower to a steaming basket into a pot, cover, and let it steam for 10-12 minutes or until cauliflower florets are tender.
- Use a powerful food processor to get a smooth creamy mash. Add steamed cauliflower, roasted garlic, butter, sour cream, milk, salt, pepper, Parmesan cheese, and thyme. Blend until smooth.
- A high-speed blender will help get a smooth and creamy mash. Be careful not to over-blend it too much, mash will turn liquid-y instead of fluffy.
- Serve in a bowl topped with butter, a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil, pepper, and thyme.
Notes
- The cooking time mentioned does not include roasting garlic head. You can make it ahead and use it to make the mash.
