I substituted this cauliflower recipe for mashed potatoes as a low-carb alternative, and my husband said it was “rockin’ good.” Flavors of Parmesan, garlic, and chives brought cauliflower to a new level and we didn’t miss the potatoes. This goes well with a nice grilled steak or London broil.
Ingredients
- 1 (16 ounce) package frozen cauliflower
- 4 cloves garlic, peeled
- 3 tablespoons butter
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh chives or more to taste
- 3 tablespoons light cream
- 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan-Reggiano cheese
- salt and ground black pepper to taste
Directions
Step 1
Place a steamer insert into a saucepan and fill with water to just below the bottom of the steamer. Cover and bring the water to a boil. Place cauliflower and garlic in steamer insert and steam until soft, 10 to 15 minutes.
Step 2
Remove garlic cloves and smash with a fork; place smashed garlic and cauliflower in a pot. Mash butter and chives into cauliflower mixture with a fork or potato masher until smooth. Stir in light cream. Sprinkle cheese over top and season with salt and pepper.
Step 3
Cook the cauliflower mixture over low heat to absorb the cream and melt the butter, about 12 minutes.
