Cauliflower Mash

Creamy Mashed Cauliflower is often touted as a low carb alternative to mashed potato, but it’s actually a delicious side dish in its own right. 

METHOD

1. Remove all the leaves and then wash and thoroughly dry your cauliflower.
2. Cut the cauliflower into florets. Steam the cauliflower in plenty of lightly salted water for around 5-8 minutes – just enough so the florets are tender but retain a somewhat firm texture.
3. Strain the cauliflower in a colander and discard the water.
4. Add the cauliflower to a food processor (or stick blender) along with 2 tablespoons of ricotta or cottage cheese and pulse until desired consistency. Salt and pepper to taste. You can also add in extra spices such as garlic salt and onion powder.
5. Sprinkle fresh parsley or chives on top before serving. Bon appetit!
