Ingredients
- 1 large head cauliflower cut into florets (about 3 pounds or 1 1/2 kg)
- 3 tbsp unsalted butter
- 3 tbsp sour cream (or cream cheese)
- 6 cloves garlic divided optional
- ¼ cup Romano or Parmesan cheese
- Salt and black pepper to taste
Instructions
- Place cauliflower in a steamer over a large pot of boiling water. Steam for 15 minutes until tender. Alternatively, boil cauliflower in salted water for 10 minutes or until fork-tender. Remove and drain. Cover with a lid and set aside.
- In the same pot, heat the butter over medium-high heat. Sauté garlic until fragrant (about 1 minute).
- Blend cauliflower and garlic in a food processor on high setting until smooth. You may need to do this in batches of two or three, depending on the size of your processor.
- Transfer blended cauliflower into the pot with the garlic. Stir in the Parmesan cheese, sour cream and season with salt and pepper.
Notes
[bs_icon name="glyphicon glyphicon-heart"] Tip: For the right texture, you only want the florets. No stems! The stems will result in a grainier texture, so leave those out. You can re-use those for other low carb cauliflower recipes. And if nothing else, you can’t go wrong with throwing them into a stir fry.
