Ingredients
- 1 head Cauliflower
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- 2 tablespoons Heavy cream
- 2 tablespoons Cream cheese
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 tablespoon Chives or parsley (optional for garnish)
Directions
Step 1
Begin by removing the leaves and stem from the cauliflower head. Cut it into florets that are roughly the same size for even cooking.
Step 2
Bring a large pot of water to a boil over high heat. Add the cauliflower florets and a pinch of salt. Cook for about 10 minutes, or until the cauliflower is tender and easily pierced with a knife.
Step 3
Once cooked, drain the cauliflower thoroughly in a colander, allowing it to sit for a couple of minutes to let as much steam escape as possible. This will prevent the mash from becoming watery.
Step 4
Transfer the drained cauliflower to a food processor. Add the butter, heavy cream, and cream cheese.
Step 5
Process the mixture until smooth and creamy. Scrape down the sides as necessary to ensure everything is well combined.
Step 6
Season the mash with garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Blend briefly to incorporate the seasonings.
Step 7
Taste and adjust seasoning if needed. If you prefer a thinner consistency, you can add a bit more heavy cream.
Step 8
Transfer the creamy cauliflower mash to a serving bowl. Garnish with chives or parsley, if desired.
Step 9
Serve hot as a side dish to your favorite main course. Enjoy your low-carb, keto-friendly cauliflower mash!
