Cauliflower And Goat's Cheese Puree (Faux Mashed Potatoes)

Type: Vegetables
Serves: 4 people

Recipe Ingredients

1/2 teaspoon 2.5mlCauliflower head - cored, and (large)
  Cut into 1" pieces
  Salt - as needed
2 tablespoons 30mlWhipping cream
2 tablespoons 30mlUnsalted butter
2 tablespoons 30mlFreshly-grated Parmesan cheese
2 tablespoons 30mlGoat's cheese

Recipe Instructions

Cook the cauliflower over medium heat in a large pot of lightly salted water until completely tender, 20 to 30 minutes.

Drain the cauliflower into a colander. With a bowl or small plate, press on the cauliflower to remove all the water. Toss the cauliflower and continue pressing. This step is very important to the texture of the dish.

Transfer the cauliflower to a food processor. Add the cream and puree until completely smooth. If you like a chunkier texture, mash by hand, adding the cream after the cauliflower is mashed. Return to the pot.

When you are ready to serve the puree, heat over low heat, stirring constantly. Add the butter, Parmesan and goat's cheese. Stir until incorporated and season with salt if necessary. Serve immediately.

This recipe yields 4 servings.
