Ingredients
- 600 grams Broccoli florets
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 60 milliliters Heavy cream
- 60 grams Cream cheese
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 30 grams Grated Parmesan cheese
- 2 tablespoons Fresh chives, chopped (optional for garnish)
Directions
Step 1
Begin by preparing the broccoli. Wash and cut the broccoli into small florets, discarding the tough stems.
Step 2
Bring a large pot of water to a boil and add the broccoli florets. Cook for about 5-7 minutes, until the broccoli is tender but still vibrant green.
Step 3
Drain the broccoli in a colander and allow it to cool slightly to drain excess moisture.
Step 4
In a large mixing bowl or food processor, combine the drained broccoli, unsalted butter, heavy cream, cream cheese, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper.
Step 5
Blend or mash the mixture until it reaches your desired consistency. For a smoother mash, use a food processor. For a chunkier texture, use a hand masher.
Step 6
Once mashed, transfer the broccoli mix to a saucepan over medium heat, stirring in the grated Parmesan cheese until it is melted and incorporated.
Step 7
Taste the mash and adjust seasoning with more salt and pepper if needed.
Step 8
Serve warm, garnished with chopped fresh chives if desired.
