THE SPECTACULAR SPUD SUB

Mashed cauliflower is a satisfying low carb alternative to mashed potatoes. It’s low calorie, high in fiber… and has powerful health benefits.

Nutrient-rich… cauliflower contains some of almost every vitamin and mineral our bodies need. It’s especially high in vitamin C.

It’s also a good source of antioxidants that protect our cells from damaging free radicals and inflammation.

Easy to prepare with only 4 ingredients. And delicious!

 

TOOLS YOU’LL NEED FOR PERFECT MASHED CAULIFLOWER

We use a food processor to puree for a smooth texture.

Other kitchen tooling options – a potato ricer and food mill work well.

To achieve a rustic mashed cauliflower with texture… use an immersion blender, handheld mixer or potato masher.

 

SHORT ON TIME?

We have an easy solution. Purchase two, 12-ounce bags of fresh, cleaned and cut cauliflower florets in your produce section to make prep even easier.

 

A SPLENDID SIDE

Perch our Bistro Braised Short Ribs atop the mashed cauliflower. Or serve alongside our Salmon, Prime Rib, or Steakhouse-Style Filet Mignon.

You’ll never miss the spuds!

 

Cook’s Notes

For a more buttery, decadent dish, add a full stick of butter vs. the half stick called for.

 

Special Diet Notes

Low Carb, Low Calorie, Keto, Vegetarian, Gluten Free, and Sugar-Free. To make Vegan, simply swap the butter for Vegan butter or your favorite extra-virgin olive oil. Add the olive oil in 1 tablespoon increments… until you reach desired consistency and flavor profile.

 

Get Creative with Optional Add-Ins

Minced chives, roasted garlic, grated Parmesan, sliced scallions, bacon and cheddar cheese.

Mashed Cauliflower Recipe - 1080 | Sister Spice
Instructions
  1. Slice a cauliflower head in half. Remove stem, tough leaves and break into florets.
  2. Fill a large pot with approximately 2 inches of water. Set a steamer basket in the bottom. Place florets in the steamer basket.
  3. Bring to a boil. Cover with a lid and reduce to a simmer, steaming until very tender, approximately 15-20 minutes.
  4. To check tenderness, pierce the stem of a floret with a pairing knife. If it slides in and out easily, it is done.
  5. With tongs, remove cauliflower from the steaming basket. Transfer to a food processor. Add butter. Puree until smooth.
  6. Scrape down the sides of the food processor. Add the sea salt and fresh ground pepper. Puree again to incorporate. Check seasoning and adjust to taste.
