Equipment
Ingredients
- 1 head of cauliflower
- salt to taste
- 2-3 roasted garlic cloves (not fresh) or 2 teaspoons minced garlic in a jar
- 1 oz cream cheese
- 1 tablespoon heavy whipping cream
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 1/4 cup shredded parmesan cheese I prefer to use parmesan reggiano
- pepper to taste
- 1 teaspoon chives fresh or dried
Instructions
- Cut the cauliflower into smaller pieces. Do not cut the stems.
- Add the cauliflower to a large pot of water. Use enough water to cover the top of the cauliflower. I used about 2 cups and a medium-sized pot. Boil the water. Add salt to taste.
- Then cover the pot and simmer for 6-8 minutes or until the cauliflower is soft. I used a fork to poke and test when done.
- Remove the cauliflower from the pot, drain the water. Dry the cauliflower completely. I used paper towels.
- Add the cauliflower to a food processor or high-powered blender.
- Next add the garlic, cream cheese, heavy whipping cream, butter, cheese, and pepper to taste.
- Blend until the mixture becomes creamy. You may have to remove the lid and stir the mixture and blend again a couple of times, to get it fully mixed and creamy. You can also use an immersion blender.
- Serve the cauliflower mashed potatoes with chives.

Notes
You can choose to saute the garlic before use if you wish. Add the butter and garlic to a skillet on medium heat. Cook until fragrant.
You don't have to add in the cream cheese, parmesan, etc. This is for flavor. You will still get creamy mash without it.
