Steam the cauliflower until very tender about 10 minutes. Don’t boil it. Boiling it makes it too soggy. Drain.
Add the cauliflower to a food processor along with 2 tablespoons of butter and salt. (If you don’t eat butter, use 2 tablespoons of ghee or extra virgin olive oil).
Process until smooth and creamy, scraping down the sides with a rubber spatula.
Taste, add more salt and butter if desired.
Serve immediately or top with golden garlic
Golden Garlic
While cauliflower is steaming, cook the garlic.
In a small sauté pan, heat 1 tablespoons of butter over very low heat and add the chopped garlic.
Cook on low until golden, stirring frequently about 5 minutes. Sprinkle with a pinch of salt.
Serve cauliflower sprinkled with the golden garlic and fresh pepper.
Notes
The cauliflower mashed ‘potatoes’ taste great without the garlic topping too!
