Equipment
- Saucepan
Ingredients
- 1 head of cauliflower
- 1 cup water
- 1/3 cup butter
- 7 cloves of garlic
- 1 onion
- 1 tsp rosemary
- 1 pinch salt
- 1 pinch pepper
- herbs
Instructions
- Take a medium saucepan and roast mashed garlic cloves with diced onion in butter for some minutes or until soft and golden.
- Cut a large head of cauliflower into florets of the same size. Try doing this to cook the cauliflower florets at the same rate.
- Add the florets to the roasted garlic with onion and add 1 cup of water so that the florets float in water but not to cover them fully. Boil the florets in water and garlicky aroma for 15-20 minutes. The cauliflower florets should be soft, but not too overcooked - to avoid the bitter mashed cauliflower.
- Drain the water and blend them with some added butter.
- Leave the mashed cauliflower puree for some minutes to cool down until you serve it as it is or next to anything you want. Garnish with some herbs.
