I declared what I made (pic below), awesome-ly delicious. And healthy too. I know maybe I was a bit absentmindedly unaware that, there is such a thing called Mashed Cauliflower, but I guess I was being totally ignorant about it till I was desperate enough to make mashed potatoes and didn't have them in hand the other day. And I saw my cauliflower dying any seconds (being exaggerating here). No it was not dying, but it started to have molds on it.
So because of that, I boiled them and didn't know what to do with it. And came up with a brilliant idea (yeah, right!) I said, "Maybe we can mashed it like mashed potatoes.." & quickly did my online R&D if this "oh-not-so-original" idea works. And yes. Thanks to the Internet world, you can just find any 'full-proof-it-worked' recipes & ideas.
So, being me, I just used what I had in the fridge to make this yummy delicious "langsung-takde-taste-like-cauliflower" mashed cauliflower.
Ingredients (my version) :-
- Some low fat milk (or you can opt for Greek yogurt or almond milk or sour cream)
- 2 tbsp butter
- 2 cloves of garlic
- 1 head of cauliflower (cuts into florets)
- Salt & pepper
- Some olive oil
- Chives (which I blend some together & left some for garnish)
- Cheese (see pic below)
After boiling the cauliflower, just throw all the other ingredients in the blender & all is in good hands. But some like it not so mushy, so using a hand masher will do too. *except the cheese. see pic below. |
I layed a sliced cheese at the botton of my bowl. Heheheheh! So when you scoop some mashed cauli, you get some cheese with it. Yumm-eh! |
Top up you mashed cauliflower with some snipped chives (which I regrow it in my apartment) |
Voila! Mashed Cauliflower! |
This is a good substitute for mashed potatoes. It's way healthier. Even if you used that many butter. Hahahahaha! well, it way better than that starchy 100% potatoes. It is also good with spreading & dipping. My husband kept spreading them on his Ciabatta, and I couldn't stop dipping it with celery & pretzel.
Have a try. Replace your usual mashed potatoes with mashed cauliflower. :)
