Serves 4
Mashed cauliflower tastes similar to mashed potatoes but reduces the carbohydrates. This simple recipe produces a smooth and creamy dish, and you can add a bit of cream, if desired.
Ingredients
1 medium head cauliflower, cut into small florets (about 6 to 7 cups)
2 to 3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
2 to 4 tablespoons water
Sea salt to taste
Method
Boil cauliflower in water until very tender, about 10 minutes. Drain and place in a blender or food processor. Add olive oil and water, one tablespoon at a time until a smooth consistency, similar to mashed potatoes, is reached. Season with salt and serve immediately.
